Running Presentations
When you launch your presentation at runtime, you can see and interact with the slides as your reader will. The presentation's runtime content includes features that allow you to interact with your analytic data, such as generation of Smart insights, changes using the Chatbot, and resizing panels.
As you work on your presentation you should look at the runtime version frequently, this will help you to ensure that it is sufficiently useful for your audience.
