Present Timeline

Last updated on 02 Oct 2024

NOTE: To present a file your device must be connected to an external monitor.

To present a file click Present. Present mode is turned on. NOTE: Present mode stays on until you click Stop or close the case. So, you can navigate from the Timeline tab to the Files tab in the same case without having to turn Present off and on.

Presentation tools are displayed at the top of the view pane, and a black screen with the Case Crafter logo is displayed on the external monitor.

Click on the yellow eyeball icon to view the timeline on the external monitor. The icon turns white to indicate that the file is being shown on the external monitor. Click on it again to stay in present mode but hide the file.

NOTE: Only the timeline itself is shown on the monitor. The tools do not show.

Scrolling on the timeline is shown on the external monitor as it is performed. If you open a fact, the files linked to the fact are displayed on the external monitor. No other tools or actions are displayed on the external monitor.

To pause actions from being shown as they are performed, press the pause icon – it turns yellow. The timeline will still be displayed on the external monitor but actions are not shown as they are performed. To resume, click the pause button again. TIP: Using the pause button is helpful when you want the display to stay visible but need to perform other actions in the app and don’t want the audience to see those actions.

To stop presenting click Stop.
