Slide order unclear #82

Open fedebarabas opened 10 years ago

Hi everyone,

First of all, I really like the software!!

I'm not really sure if this is really an issue, maybe I just need clarification. I don't understand the logic behind the order of slides in the console view. I can recognize two cases: in the first one the current slide is the biggest box, the next one is the little one on the bottom and the following is on the right hand side of the current: 1stcase

In the second case, the current is still the biggest box but this time the last one is also showing there on the bottom left hand side. In this case, the next slide is on the right and there's nothing on the bottom right. 2ndcase

So why these two cases? It's confusing. Am I doing something wrong?

thank you!

There is a difference between slides and frames or however you may call these two. Slides are the number of really different pages you have in the PDF but a slide may have multiple frames for example when you let items of a list show up after each other.

If you have slides with only one frame you will have two displays on the screen, the current and the next slide.

If you are at a slides that has multiple frames you see the current frame of the slide as the big one, the next slide on the right and the next and previous frame in small below.
