How to set "display mode" from external keyboard

I have an EliteBook 8570p in a docking station, with an external monitor and keyboard attached.
I typically have my display mode as "duplicate", with the same thing  showing on both my laptop screen and external monitor.  I use the external monitor as the main screen. This might be uncommon, but I prefer it this way.  I've been working this way for quite a while.
I very recently started using MS PowerPoint 2013.  Today I discovered an annoying bug with this combination.  I was in "slideshow mode" for a pptx I was working on, and I pressed ESC to get back to editing the doc.  What happened was that the external monitor just showed my background wallpaper, and the laptop screen showed the normal display, along with my background wallpaper.  I then had to slide over to my laptop keyboard and press Fn-F4 and set it to "Duplicate", and that restored my external monitor display.
I'm definitely going to pursue this weird behavior with PowerPoint, but I'm going to assume out of the box that this will be difficult to change.  What I'd like to get from this forum is simply a quicker way to restore the "Duplicate" display mode.  Is there a keyboard shortcut I can use from my external keyboard to change the display mode?  There's no "Fn" key.

Although I'd still like to get an answer to this, my original problem has been solved, as I was able to disable the feature in PowerPoint 2013 that mucked with my display mode (turn off "Use Presenter View").

  • How to go to display mode from VA05? Thanks.

    I have a question on VA05. There is order list and it go to change mode when you  double click on certain entry. But most of time we just want to view the order. How to direct it to display mode from here? Thanks.

    Hi ,
    I think thats the std functionality and it cannot be changed. You will have to build a custom report to do the same and enable forward navigation to display transaction va03.

  • How to set to-mode to Fixed Value and give a date in RSDV transaction

    Hi
             I am working in BI7.0 environment. I am deploying HR Reporting Project. I need to load data to HR Info Cube 0PAPA_C02, to do this I need to maintain validity slice (RSDV transaction) for the Info Cube. After first load I need to set "to-mode-'Fixed Value'" and give a date such as 31.12.9999.
            Can anyone please let me know the steps on how to set- to mode to Fixed Value in RSDV.
    Thanks

    Here's the basic steps to follow:
    1) Go to tcode RSDV, enter the InfoCube name (0PAPA_C02) and Execute.
    2) If there is data already in the InfoCube you will get a validity table with default validty dates from 0CALDAY.
    3) Click on the Display/Change button so that you're in change mode and edit the validity date to be 31.12.9999.
    4) In the To-Mode column, set the value to 'F' for fixed.
    5) Put the fixed date value (31.12.9999 in your example) in Fixed to time.
    6) Click on Save.

  • How do I copy iTunes from external hard drive to iMac?

    How do I copy iTunes from external
    Hard drive to iMac?

    if your main library is on your external, then when not connected, you wont have access to it.
    so first decide, where do you want to keep the files.
    E.g. In my case, I keep my files on "C:\iTunes Music".
    I have a backup on external "Z:\iTunes Backup". If I format my laptop, this is how I restore everything.
    Edit -> Preferences -> Advanced.
    The iTunes music folder in selects as "C:\iTunes Music"
    I have checked Keep iTunes Music Folder Organized, and also Copy Files to iTunes Music folder when adding to ibrary". Click OK to save and close preferences.
    My iTunes list is now empty. I go to file, and select "Add Folder to Library". From that window, I select "Z:\iTunes Backup". iTunes then copies everything from the backup to "C:\iTunes Music". For me, backup is backup, I dont need it to play music.
    Now decide this. If you do not want to keep music on C:, but want to only connect the external to update music on your ipod, do this:
    In preferences, set iTunes Music folder as "Z:\iTunes Backup", and uncheck Copy files to iTunes Music folder, since they are already there. Then in files, select Add folder to library again to build and update the list.

    1. Run xv (version 3.10 or later) on any desired image.
    2. Save the file as "XPM". Rename the file from <>.xpm to <>.pm.
    3. Edit the file /opt/SUNWut/kiosk/prototypes/dtsession/Dtwm and change
    the two backdrop lines to the full pathname of the <>.pm file.
    You can also place the <>.pm file in /usr/dt/share/backdrops and then
    refer to it by <> in the Dtwm file.

    I need to know how to set environment variables from java
    I want to set from java for example the environment variable "TestVar" with the value "TestValue"!1) That functionality does not belong in an application. You're trying to set environment variables, which are global across all applications, at either the user level as a whole, or across the entire machine (system level). Or, if you're only trying to set a variable active for the current process, you don't need to do that.
    2) Environment variables are not a platform-independent entity, and are thus against the nature of Java.
    My gut feel is that you are designing something in a backwards way, so my point is mainly to point that out, not to try to help you solve that particular problem.

  • How to demote to body from the keyboard in outline form?

    How to demote to body from the keyboard in outline form?

    This is the method i am using to populate a list.
    1- First of all you need to create a non-database list item for customer_name.
    2-create this procedure
    PROCEDURE populate_list_with_query
    --Populates the given list item with the specified query.
    (p_list_item in VARCHAR2
    ,p_query in VARCHAR2)
    IS
    /* Name the record group after the list item (no
    block prefix). */
    cst_rg_name constant VARCHAR2(30) :=
    GET_ITEM_PROPERTY(p_list_item,item_name);
    v_rg_id RECORDGROUP;
    BEGIN
    v_rg_id := FIND_GROUP(cst_rg_name);
    IF ID_NULL(v_rg_id) THEN
    v_rg_id := CREATE_GROUP_FROM_QUERY(cst_rg_name,p_query);
    END IF;
    IF POPULATE_GROUP(v_rg_id) = 0 THEN
    POPULATE_LIST(p_list_item,v_rg_id);
    /* Force display of first list element label
    in the list item. */
    COPY(GET_LIST_ELEMENT_VALUE(p_list_item,1),p_list_item);
    END IF;
    END populate_list_with_query;
    3- Create When-Create-Record on the block level and write this code
    BEGIN
    POPULATE_LIST_WITH_QUERY('bk1.customer_name',
    'SELECT customer_name, to_char(customer_id) FROM customer');
    END;
    In this example, the customer name is the (visible) list label and the customer ID is the (actual) list value

  • How to set Compatibility Mode for a single site in ie10

    This question was originally posted on the Answers forum -
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/ie/forum/ie10-windows_7/how-to-set-compatibility-mode-for-a-single-site-in/187152e3-142a-4d96-8d1b-af82ef571eec
    I am having problem with getting ie10 to set ie9 compatibility for a single site (sharepoint.contoso.com).
    When I add this website in Compatibility View Settings (Alt > Tools > Compatibility View Settings > 'Add this Website') it adds the domain 'contoso.com' and not the individual website (sharepoint.contoso.com).
    This cause other sites (www.contoso.com) to be configured to use compatibility mode. Because this is a separate site (different web server) to the site sharepoint.contoso.com (sharepoint 2010 server) we need different compatibility settings.
    Using a different example to explain the issue -
    Microsoft has three websites that are different websites created by different developers written in different programming languages and they only work with certain browsers.
    microsoft.com (Website1 created by Developer1) - compatible with ie8/ie9/ie10
    msdn.microsoft.com (Website2 created by Developer2) - compatible with ie8/ie9
    technet.microsoft.com (Website3 website created by Developer3) - compatible only with ie10
    The only thing the three website share is the URL contains 'microsoft.com'.
    Marking 'msdn.microsoft.com' to run in compatibility mode affects the other 2 websites - mainly technet.microsoft.com which will not work now since it only runs in pure ie10 mode. 
    Should you be able to add an individual site to the compatibility list instead of all sites that have  .microsoft.com in the URL? Am I missing a simple setting in the ie10?
    As a workaround I am using the F12 Developer Tools to set the Browser Mode which temporary sets the compatibility mode. However this is not a nice solution to the end users at our organisation.

    Oh! I wrote it wrong: I should have said: This is not solved for NON-AD environments. No demands what so ever to use Window 7/8 professional in a small corporation or on a big corporation with Island of smaller departments for example offshore.
    The problem is that the thread is not "Answered" by the OP, its is marked answered by a moderator (and same moderator that did the answer) so no way of telling if the OP is satisfied.

  • HT1660 How do I run itunes from external Hard drive?

    How do I run itunes from external hard drive. I only have ssd on PC and media is too large to fit

    You do not.
    iTunes, like all programs is installed on the C drive.
    You can store the media on another drive.
    Assuming you are moving an existing library from another computer:
    Move or Copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the old computer to the new computer and put it where you want it.
    Install iTunes using the default options.
    Hold <SHIFT> while launching iTunes.  It will prompt to create a new library or locate an existing library.
    Select the option to locate an existing library.
    Point iTunes to the iTunesLibrary.itl file in the iTunes folder that was moved from the old computer.

  • How to set display size of a Region or Dynamic Region?

    Hi,experts,
    In jdev 11.1.2.3,

    How to set display size of a Region or Dynamic Region?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    the decorative box is supposed to stretch components in the center facet, so at runtime the region should stretch. Can you try with a static region to see if this is an issue with dynamic regions?
