Player POV Slideshow

Handouts and maps are great, but there is a missing piece. Perhaps you want to walk your players through some terrain, that haunted warehouse, evil temple, show them what it looks like - without them having to click on individual handouts. You want to serve up images that appear full screen, one after the other, to help tell your story in a more visual, theatrical way. In some cases, a map is not even needed - but it is there, always ready on a click when the slideshow ends. For live TT games, I have a TV on the wall dedicated to that purpose. A constant slideshow that provides a visual reference to location. The "map" is on another TV embedded in the D table. This would approximate that in a VTT setting. What? A slideshow mode that shows pages full screen. Make this part of a new pages re-organization. Perhaps a single page slot that contains multiple pages (or a folder of page images that display in order, full screen) like a PowerPoint slideshow.
Here is  a good trick for that.  Scenes Macro for Theater of the Mind
Brilliant, thanks. Would still like a more elegant way to do this if one comes along!
