Is it possible to use the editor to add PowerPoint slides as a secondary stream

The documentation seems to suggest that to a recording with only a primary stream, you can add a secondary stream and then place the slides from a PowerPoint presentation into the timeline of the secondary stream. I selected "Add a Stream" from the menu, dropped my PowerPoint slide into the box as instructed, and it appeared that the presentation was added, but no secondary stream appeared, and it was not clear what the next step should be. Is it possible to do this and if so, how?

Try Add Slides instead of add a stream if it's a PPT file. Add a Stream let's you add another primary or secondary video stream to your recording, and then you need to use the Focus Tool to determine which primary/secondary stream your viewers can see.
