Loop slide show

Loop slide show in Microsoft PowerPoint — with the four heights of help laid out: do it now, make it easier for the next person to accept, work out the right move when you are stuck, and learn the pattern so it stops coming back.

The four heights

The same task, four distances: today's deadline, the next reviewer, the stuck moment, the pattern.

Set the investor deck to loop during the booth demo: have the slideshow start automatically on launch, loop continuously until ESC is pressed, and make sure animations and embedded video restart properly each loop. Test the full 12-slide run twice and confirm it cycles smoothly; I need confirmation by Tuesday 9 a.m.

Improve — make it easier to accept

Before I hand this to events, make the looping booth presentation behave like a polished demo: enable automatic start and continuous loop, ensure any embedded videos either restart at loop start or are set to play only once with a still frame, and remove any timers or mouse-dependent triggers. Flag slides that rely on clicks that will break in loop mode.

Decide — diagnose the stuck moment

The deck will run unattended at a booth but some slides require clicks to advance.

We’re putting the deck on a booth laptop to run continuously but three product slides have ‘on click’ animations and a demo video that needs a restart. The events lead and product manager won’t be there to click. What’s the minimal set of changes to make the deck loop reliably and still show the product animations as intended?

Become — change the pattern

I repeatedly fail to make presentations run unattended at events.

Every trade show I spend last-minute hours fixing decks that were supposed to run unattended: animations don’t trigger, videos don’t restart, and the loop breaks. I lose credibility with events and waste staff time. What standard setup and pre-flight checks should I adopt so a deck reliably loops in a kiosk for days without tinkering?

Every task here came from the work, not from a feature list — which is why the prompts name what you want done and never the button that does it. The tool changes; the work does not.
