When using PowerPoint, if you have multiple monitors, you can designate a monitor to view your speaker notes, and the other one (geared for the audience) would only see the slide deck. With only one ...
Yes, this is a good idea. The workaround is a non-answer. It is a pain to use two monitors when it is obvious that the speaker should be able to see his notes, plus the next slide, from the main screen, without displaying them to his audience.
We have found that another solution if you are working with PowerPoint slide decks on a single-screen system is to set Powerpoint to Specific Applicatin Sharing:
- Open Powerpoint
- Click Slideshow
- Select Set up Show
- Select Browsed by an individual (window)
- Use the Specific Application Sharing screen sharing method in GoTo to share just the PowerPoint application
Once activated, this functionality should allow you to open PPT Slideshows in windowed-mode instead of full screen. GoToMeeting can then share that window only with the Attendees in order to allow the viewing of PPT Notes, or the use of other desktop applications simultaneously.
Sadly this Workaround does not work anymore. A blank white page is shown to the student when i am using speaker view. A week ago it worked fine :(
