U4919DW, DDM, PowerPoint presentation or screen share

Hi there,

I use a U4919DW with DDM (Dell Display Manager).

Everything is OK. I can arrange Windows, no problem.

If I now want to do a screen share with PowerPoint for example (no matter which application), I am not able to select the "arranged" monitor, the PowerPoint is presented on the whole U4919DW.

I would love to have half presentation mode, half presenter mode.

This is not really good for the people watching my presentation.

is there a possibility to select only the arranged monitor?

Do anyone else face this thing?

Best,
David

Hi David, I found a trick that works for me. In PowerPoint on the Slide Show menu select "Setup Slide Show" and change the "Show Type" to "Browsed by an individual (window)"

This set the presentation to show in only one of my arranged windows

Hi David and ablinco,

I have the same problem. The solution you are suggesting @ablinco doesn´t give the oppurtunity to have presenter mode on a second arranged window. Also I would like the possibilty when I share screen in for example Microsoft Teams I would like to share just one of my arranged windows - is that possible?
When I try now I only can share the whole screen and that will not be so good for the one who will look at it with a "normal" screen. 

Any solution of theese problems?

Thanks for your reply @swamped207 

Is the PBP option possible to use even when just one computer is connected to the screen?

This is not specific to PowerPoint presenter mode. Any program that wants to go fullscreen does just that, and cannot be sized back into a portion of the screen without exiting fullscreen mode.

To go fullscreen in Windows using only part of the physical screen, you need to use the PBP option.

Yes, but you need to connect the monitor to your system using a different video cable so that there are 2 video connections between your system and the monitor.
