I enjoy the YouTube tutorials on ProPresenter5. Keep up the good work. I have a question regarding stage display functionality. Currently I have a main screen and a second screen that has our stage display. It has current slide, next slide etc. My choir has requested that the words be put on the stage display when they sing. However, I do not want the words displayed in the main screen during his time, just the stage display. How can I make this happen?

I appreciate your time. Thanks

I’ll admit that at first, I didn’t know if you could do it. It turns out that there’s a feature which does just that, but there are some “gotchas” that you need to look out for. Take a look at the video for more on how.
