Hi All,
Skim is hands down my favorite app for displaying and presenting
PDFs.
I frequently use Skim in Presentation mode to show a series of home
made slideshows to my preschool-aged children. Each show has a
different educational "theme": shapes, colors, numbers, vowels, all
letters. We go through a set of 5 slideshows over and over again
together in a single session. So, I repeatedly switch and forth
between files during a single session. I always want to be in
presentation mode so there is nothing on the screen other than what
I want them to identify.
I tend to do everything I can using keyboard commands. So, I hit
ESC to leave Presentation mode, then switch files using Command-`
and then re-enter Presentation mode using the appropriate keyboard
shortcut.
Unfortunately, about 50% of the time I hit Command-` before I hit
ESC. The result of hitting Command-` during Presentation is
invariably a complete freeze of Skim on my computers, forever
displaying the last image I was on. The only thing I can find to do
to get back to presenting is to Force Quit and start over.
I cannot reproduce this. When I do this all that happens is that the
fullscreen window loses focus, simply clicking in e.g. the black
area brings the focus back and allows me to do anything I like.
Yup. That is what it does for me. Who knows what I was trying to do to
get the focus back that wasn't working. I think I must have just
repeatedly hit the arrow keys and nothing happened so I figured it was
frozen. Sorry for the inaccurate report and thanks for the solution to
my foolishness.

Thanks,
