Improve present mode, speaker notes and present mode controls

Peter Neumann

As a teacher, I present to a projector from my laptop and walk around with a mouse. In order to change slides, you have to use the scroll wheel, and if your card is short, you have to scroll 4 or 5 times before you card changes. Click the mouse has no effect; while clicking the arrow on the keyboard his works, and directing the mouse to the card tabs on the bottom of the presentation works, this is prohibits movement, or I have to stop and move the mouse precisely.

Recommended fixes are to allow the card to advance on a click of the mouse or if you have already scrolled to the end of the card, the next scroll should bring up the next card. Instead the white circle with the blue wheel shows up as a scroll needlessly.

Options de diaporama dans le mode Presentation

Zachary Laverdure

Il est difficile d'exporté les présentation dans des applications comme Slide et Powerpoint sans perdre certains élèments, au lieux d'améliorer l'exportation pourquoi ne pas directement ajouté une options diaporama intégrer dans Gamma.app de cette manière ont peut utilisé l'app directement comme outils de présentation

Michelle Tran (Design @ Gamma)

Hi Zachary Laverdure! Thanks for the feedback! Our team is currently working on improving our export feature. Could you provide examples of where elements are lost when exporting?

Also could you describe what you mean by slideshow options?

Zachary Laverdure

Michelle Tran (Design @ Gamma) Hi Michelle,

Thanks for the quick reply, the main parts that get lost during exporting are the icons and image display format (See the attach). But like i said i would rather have a diaporama mode included in gamma.app that way no need for export. It would just need some options for auto next slide every few seconds (Diaporama basically)

Presenter Notes

Karen Welch

It would be really great if you could add a "hand" icon to the presenter notes so as you are adding notes you can move or scale the notes box are needed so you can read the slide you are adding them too and edit the notes on the page in real-time. I find that I am having to close the presentation to read the rest of the slide and there is not a picture reduction icon I can use to reduce or scale the box as I am adding to it.

Presenter View not working correctly

Karen Welch

I'm having trouble casting my gamma presentation through the App so it shows a presenter view on my laptop and the audience view on 1 additional monitor. When I put my laptop into "extend" mode, the presenter view shows on both screens. Do you have a fix for this?

When advancing slide, notes should start at the top

Nejm Benessaiah

This is simple but would be very useful: when I am presenting my slides on a second screen, while looking at my notes on my laptop, each time I advance a slide, I need to scroll to the top. This should happen automatically.

Presenter view useless with only one screen

Laura Reyes

I love the cards I can create with Gamma, but powerpoint has better options for presenter view. I like to have more images in my presentations and I always use my notes to have a smooth presentation, but now I have lovely cards that I will not be able to use because I only have one screen and I cannot use the notes I did on my gamma cards, so I have to download as powerpoint and start editing everything again bacause the font is always altered. Quite frustrating

Click the present button dropdown

Laura Reyes. we have a presenter mode that opens notes in a separate window. If you share just the presented screen, nobody will see your notes!

Laura Reyes

Nik Payne (Gamma design)Hi Nik, thanks for your advice. Unfortunately, it is still not useful for a person with only one laptop and no aditional screen. I know that the presenter view open the notes in a separate window, that is exactly the problem. I think would be a good idea to allow the user to have the notes next to the presentation cards as power point does, so we do not have to change windows to see the notes while we are presenting.

Laura Reyes wouldn't you end up screensharing the notes with that? Not too familiar with PPT

Dodaj znacznik

Zdzisław Kaniewski

Czasami mam taką sytuację że prezentacje muszę przerwać. Ponownie wracam do prezentacji na następnej lekcji (na przyklad w innym dniu). Proszę wprowadzić funkcje umożliwiające dodawanie znacznika z krótkim opisem. Tak żeby można było wrócić do miejsca w którym przerwałem prezentacje.

Pozdrawiam Zdzisław
