Proclaim Software "Pause" Feature Request

Hello Proclaim Software Engineers First off, thank you for all you do to make Proclaim an awesome presentation solution! I've been using it for two years, and have enjoyed it from the start. I have a request: Could you add a pause button to the "scrolling slides"? My problem is that I make announcement slides and I love that they scroll before the service, but then I also click on them during the service to put the slide back up while our speaker is giving the specific announcement. I prefer to not have to make two sets of the same announcement slides as this almost doubles the amount of slides in my sidebar and makes things seem more complicated than they are. (Often times the one making the presentation is not the one operating it, so simple is better, less slides = simple.

Seems like a useful feature to me, we'll discuss. Thanks for the feedback!

any word on this??

Frankly going looney trying to know how to pause the scripture readings in the service portion. Hard to predict the speed of the reader..

I have struggled with this also... I typically make a set of announcement slides to use in the loops before and after the service, but then make copies of some that I want to highlight at the beginning of the service in announcement time. I sometimes forget to turn the timers off of the slides that we create in Powerpoint (you have to put a timer on them or Proclaim thinks they are just a graphic and flips through them too quickly), and when I'm talking they flip to the next slide... my fault, but a pause button - AND/OR MAYBE an indication on the iPad app that there is an active timer on the slide - would be good.

Thanks,
