• For Windows7 and higher system, pressing the Windows logo key + P key at the
same time invokes a display-switch toolbar with various display options shown
below:
PC screen only – This option displays the contents of your computer screen on
the computer only. This is a great option to choose when your presentation
hasn’t yet started or if you want to use the computer for another reason and
don’t want the contents of the screen displayed through the projector for all
to see. Duplicate – This option simultaneously displays the contents of the
computer screen on the computer screen and through the projector. This is a
great choice when your back will be toward the projector’s screen while giving
a presentation. This way you can watch the computer screen while the audience
watches the projector screen and you won’t have to continually turn your back
to the audience during the presentation. Extend – This option splits the image
between the computer and projector. This way you can display one thing on your
computer screen and something else on the projector screen. This is great when
using PowerPoint so the presentation is displayed on the projector while your
presentation notes are displayed on your computer screen in front of you.
Projector Only (Second Screen Only) – As its name implies, this option will
display the content of your presentation on the projector, but show a blank
screen on your computer. Although not a popular choice, this is a good option
when you are running your presentation from your laptop on battery power.
Turning off the laptop screen can help preserve battery life.
