Hi,

 

It was my impression that a lot of those PowerPoint bugs which I also recall 
were fixed in 2.1.5 / 2.2 and are now less of an issue.

 

I’ve just tried with trunk & PowerPoint 2016 and apart from the ongoing issue 
with ending the presentation, going to the end did not cause the problems 
described.

 

(I do recall them before, but still a problem?)

 

Kind regards,

Subject: Re: [openlp-dev] Default value for behaviour of next/previous slide 
action

 

For me, if I disable that option and accidentally navigate past the end of the 
slideshow (to the 'end of presentation, click to exit' page), it breaks 
PowerPoint and/or LibreOffice (can't remember which atm) and requires me to 
unload and reload the presentation to be able to continue navigating within it.

This setting prevents that from happening & I suspect that was the reason for 
the option.

Hi,

 

Since the topic of default settings has come up, can I raise the topic of the 
‘Behaviour of next/previous on the last/first slide’ option under 
Settings/Advanced.

 

A number of OpenLP enthusiasts use wireless USB ‘presenters’ with back/forward 
buttons to control PowerPoint and OpenLP slides during services. At present it 
is necessary to change this option to ‘Move to next/previous service item’ from 
‘Remain on Slide’ to allow for ‘hands-free’ use. I’m not sure whether ‘Remain 
on Slide’ is emulating another worship package – however a few have commented 
that they always change this option before starting use.

 

Are there any thoughts about whether this behaviour could be changed? It also 
makes it easier to use OpenLP with Page Up / Page Down or Up / Down keys 
without using Left / Right. It seems more intuitive to me.

 

Could someone explain the original decision - or should the default be changed?

 

Thanks a lot,
