In our project, we've developed prototype pages to work as we want the presentation to work and managed to launch it to a second monitor and control it from the first. I figured that for some of the "gravy" functions we wanted the presenters to have Opus multi-panel layouts would be the ticket. However, immediate showstopper. When I declare the presenter page as multi-panel it refuses to launch the presentation to the second monitor. Change it to "normal" and it resumes working. I am attaching the current state of the test program for reference. Panels aren't sized right, but when you launch it the quarter with the "show presentation" button should be visible. It is supposed to launch the presentation to Monitor 2. It won't.

Turn on Script Console view and select the bullet, bullethide, title, exit, and the 4 page variables. Double click on "Pages and Bullets" to go to page one and then left click to show the bullets and change pages, or right click to go backwards. You will see the bullet, bullethide, and title page variables change but the others will not. Since the title variable is set to toggle when the title is shown, Opus thinks it's showing somewhere...but you won't see it

Go to publication properties and restore the layout to "normal" and it will work fine and you will see the variables respond.

Can't see I am doing anything wrong...but that hasn't stopped me before!

Seems to have been yet another code confusion as after rebuilding I got it working.

Carry on...
