Optional Functions
The “zoom area” will be displayed on top of the already-existing projection
of the entire slide on the VGA screen.
After the rectangular zoom area exists on your screen, you can drag it to
any part of the screen you wish. It can also be converted to any of the other
pre-defined sizes by pressing your stylus on the LCD screen to open the
pop-up menu again, then selecting a different value from the
VGA Zoom
Size
submenu. The size of the existing area will then be changed
accordingly.
If you select
Drag Select
on the submenu, you will be able to drag your
stylus on the LCD screen and freely define any area for zooming. After the
desired area has been specified, you can drag it to any portion of the
screen. You can also resize it by dragging any of its corners. To specify the
zoom ratio for the projected zoom area, use the
VGA Zoom Ratio
command.
VGA Zoom Ratio
The
VGA Zoom Ratio
command opens a submenu of pre-defined “zoom
ratio” options. When you invoke
VGA Zoom
mode by selecting it on the
pop-up menu, the current setting on the
VGA Zoom Ratio
submenu will be
activated.
Screen
The
Screen
submenu contains commands that allow you to pause a Slide
Show (
Pause Auto Play
), project a blank screen (
Blank
), undo the most
recent Ink stroke (
Clear Last Pen
), or erase all Ink strokes (
Clear All Pen
).
Pause Auto Play
If you have specified that you want slides to advance automatically after a
specified number of seconds (using the
Set Up Show...
command on the
Tools Menu or the
Set Up Show
icon on the Toolbar), you can select
Pause
Auto Play
during the playing of a slide show to pause the show. When
ready to continue the automatic progress of a slide show, tap
Resume
Auto Play
.
Blank
When you select
Blank
, your LCD screen will become completely black,
and the black screen will also be projected to your VGA screen. (After you
have selected
Blank
, the command name changes to
Restore
. Tap
Restore
when you are ready to return to the slide that was previously
displayed.)
Using the Blank Option with Pen Mode:
When the Blank option is active and IA Presenter is in
Pen
mode, you can
write or draw digital Ink on the screen, and it will be output to the VGA
device. In effect, this allows you to project an “electronic blackboard” which
you might find useful when giving a presentation to an audience. Be aware
that any Ink strokes you draw on the Blank screen will be lost when you exit
Blank mode. They cannot be retained.
