Slide Show Properties

This set of presentation-level properties controls the default slide show.

Among the parameters that can be controlled is one that defines the type of slide show. Generally, the classic slide show is characterized by a presenter presenting the presentation to an audience. The presenter controls the flow of the presentation, etc. This is referred to as a “present” slide show. In some cases, however, the presentation is distributed and individuals walk themselves through the slide show. This is referred to as a “browse” slide show. Finally, there are cases where a slide show is prepackaged and used as a kiosk; naturally, it is referred to as a “kiosk” slide show.

Furthermore, the customer can control which slides are to be included in the slide show, what color the pen should be, etc.

Finally, the customer can control various interactivity settings that are to be used for the slide show. This provides the customer the ability to configure their slide show outside the typical settings for a particular slide show type. For example, the user may create a slide show that has a pre-configured animation built with timings (i.e., the time between particular builds or the time between slide transitions), even though she is going to be presenting the content to an audience.
