Present on a Separate Display

Table of Contents

To use an external screen with Diggle, you can set up a presentation screen similar to how you would use PowerPoint. This screen displays your presentation to the audience without revealing the Backstage view, giving you better control over what your audience sees.

Connect your computer to an external display or projector. Ensure your display settings are configured to extend your screen, allowing different content to be shown on each screen.

You need to open your session in Backstage mode to allow for this way of presenting.

 

Open Backstage from the Builder.

Open your Diggle session in the builder. 

Click the arrow next to the “Present” button in the top right corner. 

Select Present from Backstage in the dropdown menu.

Open Backstage in fullscreen

Click present and open Diggle in full-screen. 

Move your mouse to the top right corner, click the “Open in Backstage” button.

Open Bacstage from the Settings menu while presenting

When presenting in full-screen mode, click the settings button in the menu bar at the bottom of your screen. 

Select the toggle named “Backstage view”.

Move or Share the Display Window

Drag the presenter screen to the external screen or projector. 

This window will show the slides and interaction content for your participants. 

If you need to bring the screen back up, click the “Open presentation screen” button in the Settings menu.

You can also share a link to the presenter’s screen. 
Go to Share -> Results and copy the link. 
This link can then be sent to a different computer connected to a screen, making it possible to present and control the Diggle with separate devices.
