Launching the Trivia Game Projector View

The Projector View for your Trivia Game is a centralized display that your entire crowd sees at your event. The Projector View shows all the details of your Trivia Game like the active question, the available answers, the live player rankings, and also displays the instructions for how your crowd accesses your Trivia Game on their mobile devices.

Your crowd uses the Projector View to "follow along" while using their mobile device to play.

Do I Have To Use the Projector View?

No, your Trivia Game will still work. All the information that is needed for your audience to play is on their mobile device (questions, answers, etc.). However the Projector View shows real-time answer results, the correct answer, and the live rankings which are fun to show to the audience on one centralized screen.

Open the Projector View

To open the Projector View click on the large purple "Projector View" button under the "Control Center" heading on the Experience Dashboard. The Projector View will open in a new browser tab. This browser tab can be detached and then dragged to the projector desktop of your computer.

Set the Projector View to Full-Screen Mode

After opening the Projector View in a new browser tab, you'll detach the browser tab and move it to a desktop on your computer that is connected to a projector, HDTV, or other display source. These are often connected to your computer's external display ports via HDMI, DVI, VGA, etc.

Once the projector is showing the Projector View's browser tab, click the "Full Screen" button in the lower-right-hand corner of the Projector View. This will put the Projector View into the full-screen presentation mode. You should do this bit of setup before your audience arrives at your event.

Your audience is now ready to follow along with your Trivia Game. The Projector View will show appropriate messages based on if your Trivia Game is in the "Ready" state, or the "Live" state, or the "Finished" state. It also shows the "Active Question", Live Answer Results, Correct Answers, and the Live Player Rankings.

Now that you know how to launch the Projector View, you're ready for the next step Updating the Trivia Game's Active Question.
