Presenting with presenter view

Presenter view provides you with a sleek presentation platform for engaging your audience and keeping you on message. This means you can present on the big screen, while having your own view specifically designed for presenting. Get tips from presentation notes, time your progress, and see a preview of upcoming content. You can even use it while presenting over a shared broadcast link. Now that’s next-level presenting.

  2. Presenter view shows you what your audience is currently seeing, as well as a preview of what’s coming next.
  3. The presentation timer automatically starts when you open presenter view. Click the pause/play button to turn the timer off and on.

If you’re using two displays, you can click Switch screen to alternate between which screen shows the presenter view and the presentation.

Pro Tip: Navigating in presenter view follows the path of your presentation. Since each display mirrors the other, you can also navigate on your second display to pan or zoom to specific parts of your presentation.

Presenter notes automatically update and display as you navigate through your presentation. To add or edit notes from presenter view, simply click and type in the presenter notes text box.
