Running a Slide Show with Dual Monitors

If the computer system you’re using for your slide show is set up with dual monitors, you can run your presentation using Presenter view on one monitor. Presenter view gives you a variety of tools with which to present the slide show, as well as a view of all your notes, while the second monitor displays the full-screen slide presentation for the audience. To be able to use Presenter view, your computer system must be able to have the Windows Desktop extended across both monitors. For a desktop computer, this usually means having two graphics adapters. If you’re using a portable computer, it must have multiple-monitor capability.

Control the Show

  1. On the Slide Show tab, with PowerPoint running and your presentation open, select the Use Presenter View check box, and specify which monitor you want to use to display the slide show. Press the F5 key or click the From Beginning button to start the show.

  2. Preview the slide that’s being shown, and then use your prepared notes to talk about the slide.

  3. Use the Next or the Previous button to go to the next or the previous animation, or—if there are no animations—to the next or the previous slide.

  4. Click any slide in the presentation to display that slide.

  5. Click to select which slide to go to, to show a white or black blank screen, to show or hide annotations, to switch to a different program, or to end the show.

  6. Click to use the annotation tools. Any annotations you make on your copy of the slide will appear in the full-screen slide show.

  7. Press Esc if you need to end the show before you’ve reached the end of your presentation.
