Chapter 8 Viewing, Printing, and Exporting Your Slideshow 157
When you’re rehearsing with a single display, the presenter display shows the
information you specified in Presenter Display preferences. Comments are visible in
the presenter display if they’re visible on the slide while editing.
Viewing on a Projector or Second Display
If you have a larger audience, you may want to play the slideshow on a second display
or project it onto a large screen. That way, you can see presenter information (your
slide notes and a clock, for example) on your display while viewers see only the
slideshow on the second display. To do this, you set up your displays in a dual display
configuration.
You can also play the identical slideshow on both screens. This setup is called video
mirroring.
Important: Attach the second display or projector according to the instructions that
came with the display or projector, and the instructions that came with your
computer (search Keynote Help for video mirroring, displays, or dual monitors). You
may need to connect the second display or projector before you complete some of
the following steps.
Note: iBook computers with a second display connected work only in mirroring
mode.
Dual Displays
With a dual-display configuration, you can play the slideshow on one screen while
controlling the slideshow and viewing presenter information on another display.
To set up dual displays:
1 Choose Apple () > System Preferences.
2 In System Preferences, click Displays.
3 Click Arrange and follow the onscreen instructions.
If there is no Arrange button, your computer detects only one display.
4 Deselect the Mirror Displays checkbox.
To play a slideshow on a dual-display system:
1 Choose Keynote > Preferences, and then click Slideshow.
