Managing Desktop Presentations

Only presentations, and links or shortcuts to presentations, display on the desktop. Other files and folders in the desktop folder do not display as icons.

You must be granted access, then locate a presentation, link, or shortcut in the desktop folder for a presentation icon to be displayed.

You cannot hide a presentation from the desktop. If you do not want to display a presentation on the desktop, place it outside the desktop folder.

Guidelines for managing presentations:

Recommended methods for managing presentations:

  1. Create and maintain a presentation in your user desktop folder.

  2. Create groups for each required distribution pattern.

  3. Edit Security file properties to grant access to groups. This is done through Workspace.

  4. Reference the original presentation by creating links or shortcuts in the group desktop.
