Launching a PowerPoint file in Slide Show view from Sharepoint Online
I have a PPSX file which uses the kiosk mode, because I want the navigation to be through action buttons rather than just simply clicking on the slides. I want to put a link to it on a SharePoint site...
You need to embed the pptx in the SharePoint site page to force run it.
1. Upload your document to the document library on the SPO site
2. Open the document in a browser rendering mode – should be default in SPO
3. Click File -> Share -> Embed.
- I tried this. It doesn't work. I get the exact same behaviour it I simply add a file widget. All that happens is when you click the expand button it opens the show presentation as a PowerPoint one. When I tried to submit feedback to Microsoft, after prompted to do so, it then says cluck submit! The exclamation mark has been added, because guess what?!! There was no submit button!!
Thanks for you reply. Unfortunately, this doesn't give the desired effect. I want the users to progress through the slides using the actions buttons. The document needs to launch in Slide Show view, in kiosk mode to acheive this.
