Notes to the projectionist
The last slide has quick access buttons for all hymns—while in presenter mode, hit the “End” key to go there (First, blank the projector to avoid distracting the congregation with the hymn selection screen). To create your own playlist, you can duplicate the last slide and keep just the buttons you need, reordering them in the order you will use them. When not in Presenter mode, you can quickly jump to other hymns by searching (Ctrl- F) for the hymn number with leading 0’s (“008”, “012”, “178”). Aim to change slides on the downbeat after entering the last word onscreen—make sure people have time to read the next slide. Remember—everyone is counting on you!
