I have to give a presentation very soon. For this I will use Libre Office Impress on a Dell Vostro 1510 with Fedora 16, which connects to a large screen through some routing device (catching sound, video and switching all on / off).
I made a trial today and what I get is a dual-screen set-up, rather than having the large screen cloning the existing LCD view. What I get is the following:
In the above screen-shot, the left half of the image corresponds to the laptop's LCD view and the right half to the large (public) screen.
However, I need the detailed view on my LCD and the full-screen view on the large screen. How can I swap the views? How are the two views named and can I switch them on / off?
I found the solution in Slide Show > Slide Show Settings ... Under the "Multiple Displays" section, I could select which display to show the presentation onto.
There's a button to the right of the timer that says "exchange". Simply click that button and it will swap the presentation display and presenter's display.
Maybe this extension can help, with more control on the presentation: http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/en/project/presenter-screen
LibreOffice is made available by volunteers around the globe, backed by a charitable Foundation. Please support our efforts: Your donation helps us to deliver a better product!

Where did you get that template? Or did you create it?
