[Solved+Issue] Draw over presentation

Post by nopposan »

Hi there.

I was wondering if there's a way to draw temporary lines over a slide during a presentation. It's the sort of thing people do with overhead projectors all the time. You know? Is there a way to accomplish this?

Try: Slide Show > Slide Show Settings > Mouse pointer visible = YES, Mouse pointer as pen = YES

Sorry, but there's no way to change the style of the markings, nor any way to save the markings--when you exit the show, they're gone.

Hey, thanks. That's very helpful.

'Too bad I can't change the style of the markings so that the lines are wider or of a different color, but I wasn't concerned about saving them anyway.

Cheers.

Perhaps there is already a request about that last question: [Tutorial] Reporting bugs.

Yes, I'm sure I've seen enhancement requests on file for all of those features. If you want to add your support by voting for them, you can look them up--I'm just feeling lazy today ;-)
