How to navigate your presentation

CueCam Presenter features a big pink “Play” button that you can use to start and navigate your presentation.

Before you start it looks like this: the-button

Here’s a very short presentation: short-presentation

When you first press the Start button, the Virtual Camera and Dashboard are revealed. This lets you adjust your Main Camera and audio settings if you need to. dash-reveal

The text of the pink button changes to preview the next card’s content and reveals the “Stop” button to the right. stop-on-right

Clicking the button takes us to the next card and shows any attached shares, triggers or slide content. next-card-thank-you

When you reach the last card, the pink bar changes to become the “End Presentation” button. last-card

Cards with bullet points

If you have a card with bullet points, the big pink button changes to reveal these bullets one at a time.

Here we have landed on a card with bullets and the pink button changes to show “Next Bullet: First thing”. bullet-points

Clicking the button reveals the first bullet and changes to show “Next Bullet: Second thing” second-bullet

When all bullets have been revealed, the button changes to show “Next Card” and will continue to the next card when clicked. last-bullet

Keyboard shortcuts

You can use the shortcuts ⌥⌘→ and ⌥⌘← to navigate your script a CueCam window is focused.

Stream Deck

With CueCam’s Stream Deck plugin installed, you can add the Next button. stream-deck

On a Stream Deck, the button will update while you are presenting.

Start: sd-start

Next Card: sd-next

Next Bullet Point: sd-next-bullet

End Presentation: sd-end

Here’s the recommended configuration for a Stream Deck Foot Pedal. stream-deck-pedal

How to request new features for CueCam Presenter

Deep Link

You can trigger the “Next” action with a deep link by calling the url cuecam://next from any other application.

You can test this by pasting it into Notes (and pressing space to make it into a link).

Click the link and CueCam will navigate to the next card. notes

Considerations

CueCam can only present one document at a time but the Next action is a global behaviour. This means that you may sometimes need to intervene to make sure the correct presentation will run, if multiple presentations are loaded, by clicking the “Start” button in the correct window.

If you trigger a “Jump To Doc” action then the End Presentation action will be replaced with a Jump Back action at the end of the jumped-to doc.
