A METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR INCORPORATING A DYNAMIC SITUATION DISPLAY IN A POWERPOINT SLIDE SHOW PRESENTATION

摘要

A slide show presentation 'plug-in' that permits the user to control an animated dynamic situation display during a PowerPoint slide-show presentation without interrupting the slide-show mode to edit the slide. A dynamic situation display file is encapsulated in a Slide object linked to a second window. A Replay Plug-In object is embedded in the PowerPoint slide to intercept user interface device (UID) events in the first slide show presentation window. These events are transferred through a COM Server object to the Slide object running in the second window, which uses a Dynamic Display object to control and edit the attributes of the dynamic situation display for replay in the second window overlapping the slide-show window.
