Presentation (deprecated)

Presentation displays a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation.

In the Presentation widget, you can open a presentation file to view its contents.
  • If your browser has a plug-in for Microsoft PowerPoint, the widget displays the file. Currently, only Internet Explorer will display the contents of the file within the widget.
  • If your browser does not have the plug-in, you can open the file using an application that opens Microsoft PowerPoint files or save the file.
  • If you are not using Internet Explorer, or you do not have the appropriate Microsoft product installed, then the widget does not display the file content correctly.
The Presentation widget has a single configuration setting. In the field, type the URL for the document that you want this widget to display. For example:
http://example.com/

If you can edit the page, you can wire the Presentation widget to other widgets so that it receives and broadcasts events. Many widgets create wires automatically when they are added to a page. You can also create wires manually. Manually wiring a widget is a task that requires understanding of how to wire an event broadcast by one widget to an event received by another widget. You might need to create a script to transform the payload content of the broadcast event into a format understood by the receiving event.
