Q: Enable Notifications in PowerPoint Slideshow

Hello,

 

I am trying to enable Mac OS notifications during a PowerPoint slideshow. I want to be able to see incoming Adium messages while PowerPoint is in Slideshow mode. It is my understanding that either Mac OS or PowerPoint automatically disables notifications in slideshow mode.

 

I am currently running Yosemite (10.10.5) with Microsoft Office 365 PowerPoint version 15.24.

 

In System Preferences > Notifications, I have Do Not Disturb mode turned off, and Adium is configured to Show notifications (Alerts) until they are dismissed.

 

In Adium > Preferences > Events it is setup under Message received to Display a notification until dismissed.

 

However, PowerPoint appears to be overriding these settings while in Slideshow mode. Is there any way to see notifications during a slideshow?

 

Thanks!

Microsoft Office 365 PowerPoint, OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)
