CC313 EXTENDED DESKTOP

Summary

Extended Desktop is the computer setup that allows the user to have their desktop with icons etc. visible to themselves and an “extended” screen that allows them view or present material that they transfer to that screen. This may allow the user to use PowerPoint in a way that lets the audience see the slides while the presenter continues to see their notes for that slide.

In CC 313 the extended desktop is available from the onboard desktop computer and from PC laptops through the liteshow feature. This feature is not currently available for Mac laptop users.
