None of the linked bugs address any of the use-cases brought up in this feature request. (1) The single-monitor use is not solved by <a class="bz_bug_link bz_status_NEW " title="NEW - SLIDESHOW: enhancement: Presenter Console also with only one monitor (as Rehearse Timings)" href="show_bug.cgi?id=62179">bug 62179</a>, and this request is not a duplicate of that one. That bug request is to see the presenter view on the one monitor for rehearsal/timing purposes. In contrast, this new feature request is for actually showing the presentation to an audience, while having access to the notes in a separate concise document, on a different device or printout. (2) As stated at the outset, this feature is NOT about the NOTES SLIDES PAGES, so the export feature <a class="bz_bug_link bz_status_NEW " title="NEW - PDF export should support Document Type selection (Slides, Handouts, Notes Slides, Notes, Outline) similar to Print" href="show_bug.cgi?id=45498">bug 45498</a> does not apply. This feature desires a concise script with JUST NOTES alone. For example: We may have a long presentation with just a few notes. Exporting and printing the entire presentation, with most pages having no notes, is wasteful and not usable in practice. (3) The suggestion that this is some bug in outside software is a misdirection. For example, Blackboard Learn is the most widely used learning management system in academia, and its videoconferencing system Collaborate is now in heavy use for distance learning. That system can present to audience members PDFs that instructors have created and exported in Impress, but we need some outside way to access the notes script. That system does not interface directly with Impress, and it surely never will. In short: There is a critical need for a concise Notes script, on a disconnected device or printout, in many cases where the presentation is being displayed to audiences with only a single display available (in person or online). Without this feature, many instructors who wish to use Impress for presentation creation (as evidenced by the links at top) will need to keep spending time making manual copies of their notes, on an ongoing basis.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
