** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: openoffice.org-presenter-console
  
  If I run an Impress slideshow with Open Office Presenter Console, and
  switch to the multiple-slide view, I see the list of slides in the
- slideshow, as expected. But if I use the arrow keys / space bar / etc.
- to change slide, the slide view stays the same, rather than scrolling
- down to show the currently selected slide.
+ slideshow, as expected. But if I use the arrow keys / etc. to change
+ slide, the slide view stays the same, rather than scrolling down to show
+ the currently selected slide.
+ 
+ This is worse when I'm in the middle of the slideshow. If I need to jump
+ slides, the presenter console multi slide view does not follow along and
+ have the current slide already selected.
+ 
+ For instance, if you're on slide 20, and want to jump several slides
+ forwards to answer a question or something, you go to the multiple-slide
+ view, and it has slide number 1 displayed. It hasn't kept track of the
+ fact that you're on slide 20. So, you have to scroll along until you get
+ to the current slide, and then work from there. When you're live in
+ front of an audience these slight delays are a distraction to the
+ presentation.
  
  I'm using Open Office Impress and openoffice.org-presenter-console from
  the repositories.
- 
- This is partially a missing-feature request rather than a bug, although
- without auto-scrolling one must continually drag the scroll bar during
- the presentation, or switch back to the default two-slide view.
