jabenroth I have a laptop running office 2016 and the current version of OpenLP. When we run a PowerPoint presentation it loads the first slide. You have to click on PowerPoint on the desktop in order to have it run on the screen after it over you have to click back on openlp to go back into the program. It's Windows 7 with office 2016, and the current version of openlp. Thank you for your help.
tgc Since we (the developers) do not have access to PowerPoint 2016 we are having problems recreating this issue, but you are not the first one to report this.We will try to fix this when ever we get our hands on PowerPoint 2016.
jabenroth Thank you we found a temporary work around, it's not perfect just annoying if you miss a step. <br>
jabenroth We were loading it outside the software and just jumping back in, however it seems to be working right now in the program.<br>
northside I cant even get OpenLP (2.4.2) to work with Powerpoint 2016 at all. Ever since I upgraded to 2016 all the powerpoint options are grayed out and unavailable in OpenLP. Powerpoint works fine on its own.
raoul You might need to install the Microsoft Visual C++ extensions: https://manual.openlp.org/troubleshooting.html#i-have-powerpoint-installed-but-it-does-not-show-as-a-presentation-option<br>
northside I have done this - and it is installed but still doesn't work. I have since even completely reimaged the computer, and set it all up again and it still doesn't work. I can use Powerpoint 2016 just fine on its own, it just never shows as an option in OpenLP. Unfortunately a deal breaker for us using OpenLP now.
