Presenter view allows the lecturer to show his Powerpoint presentation so in such a way that he sees basically all of his slides and possible comments on the computer monitor, while the participants see only the active slide on the big screen. This is a good additional option, but it has confused caused confusion among some lecturers.
The presenter view requires the possibility of sharing the video image (Extend) on two screens - this is only possible if the computer has 2 video outputs, one of which is connected to a monitor (PC screen), the other - to either a projector or another monitor (Second screen).
Setting up the screens to be displayed
The screen selection window can be displayed in several ways in Windows:
Keyboard combination Win+P
Start → Search with the keyboard Project or the Project button in the lower right menu
Picture modes
A window with 4 options opens.
screen
only - DO NOT CHOOSE - no picture will be displayed on the second monitor (projector etc).
korral on üks ja sama pilt laotatud 2 ekraani vahele, kusjuures ühel neist (reeglina suurel ekraanil) on ikoonid "kadunud" ja hiirekursor asub samal ajal vaid ühel neist. Kasutatakse vaid Powerpointi korral - pilt ilmub suurele ekraanile (second screen) vaid Slaidiseanss vaates (klahv F5). Teiste programmide korral ei saa pilti suurele ekraanile, pigem kasutada siis duplicate.
Pictures of both screens (PC screen / Second screen) in Slideshow view (F5 key) for all 4 options:
Duplicate
Both screens will show the same image and the mouse cursor moves in the same way, both screens also have the same icons and windows.
This option makes more sense if the lecturer does not use Powerpoint, but some other program (Word, Acrobat, etc.).
Extend
The mouse cursor can only be on one screen at a time. It can of course be moved between the two screens, it takes practice.
You can drag all windows, icons, etc. with the mouse. from one screen to another, but in public computers (lecture rooms, etc.) it is not recommended - this option will remain visible for everyone in the future and confuses.
The lecturer sees the active Powerpoint slide, the next slide, and his comments, but only the active slide is visible on the big screen.
PC screen only
There is no image on the second (projector) screen, but the text "No signal".
Second screen only
In this case, the image does not appear on the computer monitor, it is "black", and if the projector (Second screen) is not turned on, it confuses.
Solution: the projector must be turned on, and the correct option (duplicate or extend) must be returned when looking at the big screen.

Notes
These choices are computer-specific - if one user has made a choice and left it, it will remain the same for the next one, no matter what username he logs into the given computer. A sure option for everyone is Duplicate.
- The Powerpoint Slide Show menu should have the following options:
Monitor: Automatic.
Use Presenter View: activated.
- If the screens are accidentally switched to the Extend view, they can be quickly switched in the Slide Show mode by pressing the Swap Presenter View and Slide Show button. Or even go to the Duplicate Slide Show view, where the same image is displayed on both screens.
- So - feel free to use the F5 and Esc keys and the Win+P key combination during presentations.
