How to Present a PowerPoint Slideshow on InSpace: Step-by-Step Guide

Learn how to share your PowerPoint presentation with participants on InSpace using Screen Share and PPT & PDF cloud sharing options.

    Want to share a PowerPoint presentation with your participants? Here are the steps for presenting a PowerPoint slideshow using InSpace.




    PowerPoint slideshows can be presented to participants on InSpace. You can share your slides in the main room, the Presentation Room, the Discussion Room, or in Breakout Rooms. While in the Breakout Room setup, presentations can be shown to the whole space or presented inside an individual breakout room by the host or a participant. Any user may share one of their tabs at a time in a space. 

    To present your PowerPoint slideshow using the Screen Share option, follow these steps:

    1. Open the PowerPoint presentation you wish to share.
    2. Click 'Slide Show' from the menu above your presentation.
    3. Click 'Set Up Slideshow' and choose 'Browsed by an individual (window)' then click 'OK' on the bottom of the window.
    4. Log in to InSpace and start a session.
    5. If you want to share your slides in the main room of your space with no breakout rooms created, skip this step. 
      • Click the 'setup space' icon  on the host control menu on the left of your screen. 
      • Choose either Presentation Room, Discussion Room, or Breakout Rooms to determine where you want to share your slide deck.
    6. Click on the arrow icon in the lower right-hand toolbar to start sharing.
    7. Select 'Screen Share' and 'Window' and then choose your PowerPoint presentation.
    8. Note that you can minimize your PowerPoint window so that you can see your InSpace session while navigating through your slides.

    With PPT & PDF cloud sharing, users can share PPT & PDF files, and control them directly from inside their space. 

    To share your PPT / PDF follow the steps below:

    1. Click the 'Start Sharing' option.
    2. Select the 'PPT & PDF Share' button.
    3. Click the 'Upload File' to choose your file from your computer. .pdf, .ppt, and .pptx files are all compatible with this feature. 
    4. Once your file has been uploaded, select the 'Present' option. 

    Your file will then appear, allowing you to click on the screen's bottom left corner to move your slide or pages forward and back. You can also scroll up and down when your PDF is being shared.

    The maximum support file size for PPT, PPTX and PDF is 50 MB.
