Using dual monitors on powerpoint
Hello, for my art project I need to make a powerpoint slide of different
colours to aid my art piece. I was wondering if there was any way to incorporate both of my screens, as I have two connected to my PC, and show the simple colous over both screens. Help would be much appreciated, thank you. |

Using dual monitors on powerpoint
If they are static presentations (that is, there is no animation,
transitions, etc.) and only 1 slide, you can perhaps try the following: 1. Ensure that both your monitors are connected to your PC and are enabled for display. 2. Open one of your presentations in PowerPoint. 3. Click "Slide Show" | "Set Up Show" item. 4. Select "Monitor 2" in "Display slide show on" box in "Multiple monitors" section. 5. Click OK. 6. Start the slide show by pressing F5 key. 7. Open your other presentation. 8. Click "Slide Show" | "Set Up Show" item. 9. Select "Primary Monitor" in "Display slide show on" box in "Multiple monitors" section. 10. Click OK. 11. Start the second slide show by pressing F5 key. You should see both your slide shows - one on each monitor. If your slide shows have animations and transitions that you want to play simultaneously on both monitors, you would need to use PowerShow - http://officeone.mvps.org/powershow/powershow.html - Chirag OfficeOne Animations - Add over 50 animation effects to PowerPoint http://officeone.mvps.org/anims/anims.html "Simran94" wrote in message ...
