1 year ago Hi Ian,
I've been working through this - most of the logic was there and believe it or not most of the issues are caused by theme colours not being respected. I was using dark theme and when I switched to light theme I couldn't seen anything. Anyway, I've fixed that but not committed yet as I need your advice.
When using a secondary display what would you expect for each mode in terms of second display colours/fonts? I will start by saying Performance mode (least likely to use second display) should use the same fonts, colours etc as in performance mode since it shows all sections and hightlighted backgrounds etc.
Presenter mode, does (and I think rightly) uses the presenter colours in the theme and the fonts described
My uncertainty comes around stage mode. Should it follow the presenter mode or the performance mode for second screen colours? I know you use this mode extensively, so wanted to confirm the best method (not necessarily what v5 uses). I'm leaning towards presenter mode output, but will go with what you say!

Data: v5 supports Image (png, jpeg...), PDF (single and multi page), custom slides (with timer), scripture, image slideshow (with timer)
These display on the primary and secondary screens as appropriate for the mode in use.
All of these formats can be edited in v5 after creation. at least, using basic edit - the user may need to understand how user fields are used to adjust looping and timers if not in presentation mode.
Whilst some formats are more relevant to presentation they are viewable (at least basic display) in all modes . A user of a shared set can reasonably be in any mode.
v6 fork does not yet support display and edit of all expected formats giving degraded abilities.
This can be addressed for each format to ensure all modes, all screens (primary and secondary, local and connected) display content in a reasonable way. The complexity of screens and modes makes testing a major part of the work.
