Is there anyway to force Presenter View to run on a single screen? It is
very nice when you need to read your speaker notes and time animations while
watching the actual presentation run. It would be very nice to see that on
screen as you do in Presenter View rather than having to print notes
(killing trees again) and then going over them on paper. Or, dragging out
the projector and burning valuable lamp life rehearsing.

As far as I know you cannot. It is possible to see both the show and the
notes by having the notes page in aminimised window about half screen size
and ctrl clicking the 'show presentation' icon (bottom right - looks like a
screen) but the notes won't progress along with the show and you will have to
move them manually.

Hi Rikk

I think it would be a great feature to be able to practice with presenter
view - if you post it as a suggestion I'll vote for it :-)

You aren't the first to ask for this one. A couple of us have already asked
(but more votes is better votes ... go for it)
 
Yes, it is possible to force this. Check out: http://lucidhacks.blogspot.com/2009/09/powerpoints-presentation-view-with-only.html

Another workaround is to hold the Ctrl key and then press the Start
Slideshow button with the mouse. This causes the slideshow to run in a
small window in the top left of your screen, leaving the rest visible.
If you resize the PowerPoint Edit Window I guess it might be a viable
alternative.
