Hello all,
I recently built a scoring board in powerpoint, using macros I enabled shapes to have values that added to a total, or sum and subsequently have a shape that adds round scores to total scores when clicked. I have a couple of issues.
1. Is there a way to actively work in a slide while in Presenter Mode but blacking out extended screen or using a screen saver? I currently have to unplug HDMI to not show that I am adding scores.
2. When a score is updated in the "total" Shape, I want it to show on a different slide than the scoreboard. Thus I have a leader board that does not have the Scoring function on display while working. If the top fix were solved, I could use it. If Both 1 & 2 can be solved...Whoo Hoo!!!!
3. Least of my needs-- In the end I want to send a final Score to a specific slide for final winners. In this scenario I want to make a "1st, 2nd, 3rd button for each player line that in turn would send their total to a seperate slide with a shape for 1st, 2nd, 3rd.
Thanks so much for any help,
Trivia smart but macros dumb.
