Customizing the Presenter View in PowerPoint can enhance your presentation delivery and control. Here’s a step-by-step guide:
1. Enable Presenter View
To start, open your PowerPoint presentation. Go to the “Slide Show” tab in the ribbon, and in the “Monitors” group, check the box for “Use Presenter View.”
2. Customize Slide Show Settings
In the “Slide Show” tab, choose “Set Up Slide Show.” Here, you can set your presentation to loop continuously until ‘Esc’ is pressed, decide which slides to display, and more.
3. Arrange Your Screens
If you are using multiple monitors, make sure to designate which screen is the Presenter View and which one is for the audience. To do this, go to “Control Panel” > “Display” > “Adjust resolution.” Drag the monitors to match your physical setup.
4. Use the Tools in Presenter View
Once you start the slideshow, you’ll see the Presenter View. Here, you can see your current slide, speaker notes, and the next slide in your presentation. You can use the controls at the bottom to navigate through your presentation, use the pen and highlighter tools, and even black out or white out the screen if needed.
Remember, Presenter View only shows on your computer. The audience sees only the presentation.
By customizing and getting familiar with the Presenter View in PowerPoint, you can deliver more engaging, fluid, and professional presentations.
