### Starting a Slideshow

There are several different ways to start a new slideshow. Often you will be able to use one of the standard types of slideshow, and jump straight in, but if you want to configure settings yourself, you can build a custom slideshow.

The standard types of slideshow are:

Slideshow Type | Description
--- | ---
All Due Notes | Slideshow will contain all of the due notes in your library. The order of facets will be determined by the learning schedule.
Due Notes in Selected Stacks | Makes a slideshow with any due notes in the stacks selected in the source list on the left. Facet order is determined by the learning schedule.
Notes in Selected Stacks | A slideshow including all of the notes in the stacks selected in the source list on the left. The first available prompt facet will be used.
Notes in Stacks with Facets Reversed | Includes all notes in the selected stacks, but will prefer the second available prompt (if there is one). If your notes have two facets that can be prompt, this is equivalent to viewing the facets in reverse order.
Selected Notes | Only notes that are selected in the note browser on the right will be included. The first available prompt will be used.
Multiple Choice Quiz | Will use the notes from the selected stacks to make a multiple choice quiz. Not all notes can be in a multiple choice quiz; for example, a note must have at least one facet that can be the prompt, and one response facet that is true.
Multiple Choice Quiz with Shared Choices | As for the 'Multiple Choice Quiz', except that facets will be shared between notes to make up the incorrect choices.
Custom... | This choice will display the full set of slideshow configuration options. You can configure a slideshow any way you choose before beginning.

The way you initiate a slideshow depends to some extent on the mode you are working in.
