PowerPoint presentation preparation
Following the previous pairing table, prepare the slide content with one slide per SLATE device.
☛ Given that the screen of the SLATEs devices has a 4:3 format, it is recommended to configure your PowerPoint presentation with a slide layout
configured in the 4:3 aspect ratio as well. In the
Design > Slide Size
PowerPoint item, choose
Standard (4:3)
value instead of
Widescreen
(16:9)
value.
☛ Keep in mind that the final rendering will be finally displayed on a SLATE screen filling the following requirements: 800x600 pixel and four grey
levels colors. Do use the grey colors shown below.
G rey color range R-G -B (integer value)
Black 0-0-0
Dark grey 95-95-95
Light grey 159-159-159
White 255-255-255
☛ Some sections can be used especially to publish on several SMH300 devices, with one section per SMH300 device or to shorten the publication
time for a given SMH300 device by avoiding to publish unuseful slides. With a right click on the slide thumbnail list on the left, it is possible to
remove one or all the sections. To add a section after a slide, select a slide in the slide thumbnail list, right clic, and choose
Add section
. You
can for example rename the section with a name containing the hostname of the SMH300 device or containing the building floor where the
SMH300 device is installed. Do not gather more than ten slides per section. For further information about PowerPoint sections, refer to the
Microsoft PowerPoint support about section .
☛ When there is no section at all , during the publication, the
Qeedji PowerPoint Publisher for SLATE
PowerPoint Add In switches automatically
to another SMH300 device every ten slides. Ten is the max. number of SLATEs supported per SMH300 device.
In case you need to modify the PowerPoint layout template, the good practise is to modify the Slide Master . In the
View 5
menu, click on the
Slide
Master 6
ribbon item.
Then:
select the child
Slide Master 7
to change texts or add new placeholders
8
for the common layout.
select the parent
Slide Master 9
to bring shape modifications (increase place holder size, change color) for the common layout,
☛ Return to
Normal
10
view to edit the text which is different for each slide.
