OfficeOne PowerViewer brings multiple monitor capabilities to the free
Microsoft PowerPoint Viewer.
The
tutorial page explains you how to setup PowerViewer. After setting
up PowerViewer, the following steps explain how to configure it to run
different slide shows on different monitors:
OfficeOne PowerViewer supports running slide
shows from command-line. The command-line options are explained
here. We will make use of those
options to run different slide shows on different monitors.
Assume that we want to run P1.ppt on monitor 1, P2.ppt
on monitor 2 and P3.ppt on monitor 3. The command-line parameters would
look like:
PowerViewer "C:\My Presentations\P1.ppt" 1
PowerViewer "C:\My Presentations\P2.ppt" 2
PowerViewer "C:\My Presentations\P3.ppt" 3
When you want to run these three slide shows through a
Windows batch (.bat) file, the .bat file contents should look like:
Start PowerViewer "C:\My Presentations\P1.ppt" 1
Start PowerViewer "C:\My Presentations\P2.ppt" 2
Start PowerViewer "C:\My Presentations\P3.ppt" 3
The "Start" command returns after launching PowerViewer.
The
CloseAllPowerViewerSessions.exe allows you to terminate all running
PowerViewer sessions. This utility can be used to terminate all the
three running PowerViewer instances.
