When doing presentations I normally us a remote control for the control of the slides. Now this control only has four control buttons (which normally are sufficient):

  • PageUp
  • PageDown
  • StartPresentation
  • toggle screen (basically key b)

This works fine with any PDF viewer but can currently not be used to control the the presentation produced by cadeau because PageUp/PageDown simply jumps to first and last slide in a section.

I agree. Can you tell me exactly what keys the remote produces? I understand PageUp and PageDown, but what is "StartPresentation"...Home?

Also, what do you want them to do. Presumably, you want PageUp to be next slide and PageDown to be previous slide (or vice versa?!?).

We just need to spec out exactly what we want. I totally agree it is needed.

Some tests. Looks like that my Linux box does not recognise the "Start Presentation" key and neither the b key.

Here what it should be like:

  • PageUp: previous slide
  • PageDown: next slide
  • "Start Presentation" button (on Windows this simply starts PowerPoint presentation and if pressed again exits it again. If then pressed again it starts the presentation from the beginning similar to F5 I think): I would assign this to F11 in order to enter full-screen mode of the browser
  • b: toggle black screen if possible.
