            Bug ID: 133765
           Summary: Impress "presenter console" needs a way to NOT be
                    full-screen
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.3.6.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Impress
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: oldbaldgeek at gmail.com

Description:
Having the slide on the second monitor be full-screen is great.  But
full-screen presenter console means you can't access the taskbar or start
button to run or switch to other programs.  Disabling presenter console isn't a
good option, since the edit view doesn't track the slide being shown on the
second monitor.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start a slide show


Actual Results:
1. First slide shows full-screen on seconds monitor
2. Presenter Console shows full-screen on main monitor, hiding task bar, start
button, and another other open applications

Expected Results:
DESIRED result is a way to have Presenter Console not be full-screen.

Actually, I don't see any reason for Presenter Console to EVER be full-screen. 
Maximized or window is fine, and is how PowerPoint works.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
