You can control these aspects of an ArcGIS Explorer presentation
Allow slides to change the basemap
Show the presentation toolbar
Smooth the edges of fonts when drawing text
Determine which slides to show
Allow slides to change the basemap
When you capture a slide, you also record the information about which basemap was present at the time of capture. If you change the basemap during your session and then capture another slide, the application records that new basemap information so that during a slide presentation, each slide will display the basemap that was present at the time of capture; however, this may not be optimal for performance reasons. If you uncheck this option, the presentation will use the basemap of the first displayed slide, for all slides of the presentation, ignoring any change to the basemap implicit in other slides.

Show the presentation toolbar
The presentation toolbar appears in the upper left corner of a running presentation. As you move the mouse cursor over the toolbar it becomes brighter. The toolbar contains controls you can use to move through the slide collection, show the Slides window, and end the presentation:
 | 1. Pause slide show (only shown if slide advance mode is set to automatic). |
2. Move to the previous slide. |
3. Move to the next slide. |
4. Show the Slides window. |
5. End the presentation. |

Smooth the edges of fonts when drawing text
This setting controls how the application draws text for slide titles. If you check this option, your slide title text will have smooth (anti-aliased) edges.
