I am about to create a presentation for a company and they normally use Powerpoint, but I need more video, audio and interactivity than Powerpoint can provide. However, they are used to using a mouse presentation device to control the presentation.

Can such hardware easily control a Opus Pro export? I plan to export to either HTML 5 or a windows .exe.

Also, is there any way to take advantage of a second screen? In Powerpoint, you can set the presentation to use Screen 2 (projector or other monitor) instead of screen 1. Is this able to be set somehow in Opus Pro?

Thank you.

Mike

If it behaves like a mouse in Windows, then yes, it will work the same way with Opus.

As for the second screen, Opus has had multiple monitor support for long time. Basically, run the publication in a window, and create a chapter for each window and then set the chapter properties > window tab > monitor accordingly.

A GotoPage action will then change the page on the screen related to the change regardless of which monitor page the action was called from.
