For
hosts or presenters who share a presentation in the Share pod, special controls
are available for navigating and displaying the presentation. A
presentation layout has the following areas:
-
Presentation
-
The main part of the window, which displays the presentation slides.
-
Presentation sidebar
-
An area on the right side (default location) of the browser window
that shows the name of the presentation, the presenter information,
and the Outline, Thumb, Notes, and Search tabs (if the tabs were
included in presentation theme). If you cannot see the sidebar,
click Show Sidebar
to
the lower-left of the presentation.
-
Presentation control bar
-
A bar at the bottom of the presentation that gives you control
over the presentation playback, audio, attachments, and screen size. This
is visible to hosts only, unless a host chooses to display it to
participants. (To see all presentation toolbar options, the presentation
file should be loaded to the content library from Adobe Presenter.
If you load the PowerPoint PPT or PPTX file directly into the Share
pod from your computer, not all presentation toolbar options are
visible. You may also need to click Sync to the lower right of the presentation.
Note:
Adobe
Connect administrators can change pod, sharing, and other settings
to adhere to standards for governance. These settings affect the
layout of meeting rooms and what you can do in meeting rooms. For

Use the presentation Outline tab
Most presentations have an Outline tab on
the sidebar. The Outline tab lists the title and duration of each
slide. You can use the Outline tab to display information and to

is highlighted with a glow color, which you can change in the theme.
You can choose to display the highlight outline to all attendees
or to hosts and presenters only.

Use the Presentation Thumb tab
Presentations can have a Thumb tab on the
sidebar. The Thumb tab shows a small picture of each slide, the
slide title, and the slide duration. The current slide is highlighted

Thumb tab to see the contents each slide quickly and to move to
a specific slide in the presentation.
Note:
If you upload your
presentations directly from your computer and into a meeting, the
Thumb tab is not displayed. Adobe recommends adding presentations to
a meeting from the Content library.
