Using the Show Item Command

Contents

Using the Show Item command, you can immediately display any item from the Exhibits, Media, or Transcripts area in the presentation window. The presentation window does not need to be open when you run the Show Item command. The item will show immediately even if the presentation window is configured not to load the first item in a presentation.

In addition, the command adds the item to the end of the presentation. If the item was already listed in the presentation, the command causes the item to be listed in the presentation twice.

It is important to note that the Show Item command opens the presentation that is currently selected. The currently selected presentation might not be the same as the currently open presentation. To determine for certain which presentation the item will open in, click the Presentations navigation bar. The currently selected presentation is highlighted. For example, in the following graphic, the Show Item command would open the item in Presentation B.
