Re: Viewing PowerPoint show inside a card
I think I figured this out. I'm sure this is not the most ideal setup but it seems to work so far. Can anyone see an issue with this? ## Inorder to loop a set of slides only if there is no user input, but if there is user input reset the loop timer. Global tTimer on idle if the seconds > tTimer + 10...

Re: Viewing PowerPoint show inside a card
I've decided to export all the PowerPoint slides as images and get rid of the animations. But, now my next issue. I've modified Klaus' "auto_slide_lite" to fit my project. As a slide show it works well, with only a next button and previous button. I'd like to add a looping function that only advance...

Re: Viewing PowerPoint show inside a card
Hi Sturgis,
Interesting thought. It does seem that google docs has some sort of ppt support. Probably enough you could use a browser instance. But I've discovered if there is video embedded in the presentation google docs will not work.
Thank you,
Josh

Re: Viewing PowerPoint show inside a card
Thank you Klaus. I was hoping I was just missing something in LC that would allow me to do this. But, I guess not.
I did look into saving the PPT as html and then running it through revbrowser, but saving PowerPoint as html doesn't save the animations either.
Thanks,
Josh

Re: Viewing PowerPoint show inside a card
Hi Mark, Thank you for your response. The PPT presentations have already been created for me to use. I'd rather not go down the road of exporting each slide and recreating in LC. I have exported them as a movie and brought them into LC as an fail-safe option, but I actually want to be able to contro...

Viewing PowerPoint show inside a card
I am building a fairly simple UI for a kiosk touch screen computer. I have a number of PowerPoint Shows already built with animations and embedded videos that I need to use within my application. Currently I have my application set to open and run the PowerPoint show but it opens outside of the appl...
