Trigger
If the Trigger mode is selected, the slide show will advance according to
the mode you set using the Tools, then Set Up Show... command or Set
Up Show icon. For example, if you have specified to advance the slides
manually, they will advance each time you tap on the screen. If the slide
show is set to play automatically, you can use the pop-up menu to put it on
pause or end it immediately. IA Presenter is set to Trigger mode by default.
Pen
Select the Pen command to enter Ink annotation mode. During the Ink
annotation mode, you can use the stylus to mark or highlight the presen-
tation elements on the screen. To exit the Ink annotation mode, select the
Trigger, VGA Pointer, or VGA Zoom mode from the pop-up menu.
Use the Pen Color submenu to choose the Ink color, and use the Pen
Width submenu to choose a thickness.
If Pen mode is active when you select Blank from the Screen submenu,
you will be able to draw or write Ink annotation on the projected black
screen. (The Screen submenu also lets you undo the most recent Ink
stroke, or erase all of the Ink strokes.)
VGA Pointer
This mode works only when IA Presenter is in VGA Slide Show view. After
you select the VGA Pointer command, your stylus movements on the
LCD screen will simulate a laser pen light on the VGA screen during pre-
sentations. (To exit the VGA Pointer mode, select Trigger, Pen, or VGA
Zoom from the pop-up menu.)
VGA Zoom
This mode works only when IA Presenter is in VGA Slide Show view. After
you select the VGA Zoom mode, you will be able to specify a portion of
the screen which will be projected to the VGA screen, and also a zoom
ratio for that specific area. (To exit VGA Zoom mode, select Trigger, Pen,
or VGA Pointer from the pop-up menu.)
The message that appears on your screen when you invoke VGA Zoom
mode depends on the value that is currently selected on the VGA Zoom
Size submenu. The message will either tell you to tap-and-drag your sty-
lus to define an area yourself, or it will tell you to simply tap your stylus to
create a zoom area of pre-defined size. You can specify the zoom ratio
using the VGA Zoom Ratio submenu, accessed from the Slide Show
pop-up menu.
Pen Color
Tapping Pen Color opens a submenu of available colors to use for your
Ink annotation when in Pen mode. Select one of the available colors as
