Total slides during presentation

It would be appreciate that during the presentation mode, I can get information about the total slides in the bar. Actually, there is the number of slides ( < 1 > ), but I think that if shows de total number of slides would be better: ( < 1/20 > )

Hi Carlos,

Thanks for your request! I’ll log this then come back to you in 2 weeks time with a clearer information from our Product Development team.

In my presenting experience, using the backstage to see how many slides/questions are left is a good practice, it’s good for preparing what to next for the next slide also.

Cheers,

Duke

Hi Carlos!

This is Dave from AhaSlides. I think your request is perfectly reasonable!

However, some presenters may not wish to reveal the total number of slides in a too-obvious manner.

I wonder if a middle ground solution would work better: not showing the total number of slides by default, but when the presenter hovers the mouse over that box, a tooltip will show up (telling “You are on slide 5 of 20”).

What do you think?
