hi all.

Look at ooimpress on centos 5 x86_64.

been trying to find a way to get it to just show a power point and not show the editor screen.

If you find out, let us all know. I open a .pps from an email, and get the editor screen.

tried:

ooimpress -show pp.ppt

At least on my version, this works. It shows the editor screen for a second then drops into presentation (full screen, <space> to advance, etc.).

[kwan@ice9 Documentation]$ yum list openoffice*impress Loaded plugins: dellsysidplugin, downloadonly, fastestmirror, priorities Installed Packages openoffice.org-impress.i386 1:2.3.0-6.11.el5_4.4 installed [kwan@ice9 Documentation]$

ooimpress -invisible -show pp.ppt ooimpress -headless -show pp.ppt and others I always get the editor window.

Did some google searching and didnt find anything...

Was wondering if anyone knows how to start impress and not show the editor. I just want to see the power point in slide show mode.
