Rather than the voting box counting all the votes that come in, is there a way that I can change it to a timer?

You can set a timer for a number of seconds within which to vote rather than counting the votes coming in. Generally we recommend that you set this for 10 seconds. Read out the question and then start the timer when you are happy for people to start voting.

Go to Add-ins > CLiKAPAD > Slide Editor and then choose the Voting tab. Now select Countdown and set the number of seconds. We recommend that you leave the three tick boxes under the number of seconds ticked. This will mean that you will start the timer and close the vote manually rather than the timer starting as soon as the slide is displayed and closing the vote as soon as you get to zero seconds left.
