Displaying presentation and notes at the same time?
We always play our presentations through a Windows laptop to a projector, no
problem. Someone has come along wanting to play the presentation on the projector but see the notes on the laptop screen, all from one laptop. Apparently you can do this on a mac! Any ideas how you go about this in a Windows environment? |

Any ideas how you go about this in a Windows environment? The first question: Does your laptop support two screens of different (not mirrored) content? That's a function of your OS and monitor drivers, not PowerPoint. That's your starting point. |

start. Thanks again. "Tim Murray" wrote: On Wed, 16 Jul 2008 07:27:33 -0400, Pete wrote: We always play our presentations through a Windows laptop to a projector, no problem.
