[Bug 1007150] Re: powerpoint viewer not found from openLP

 

Sorry I know pptviewer itself works with Wine. What I meant was that
pptviewer functionality within OpenLP doesn't work when pptviewer is
running under Wine.

Because the viewer doesn't have an API, we have to hook into some low
level Windows Messages to figure out how many slides there are, which
slide we are on, and to grab screenshots. It is this that will only work
on Windows.
