Actually I am not running multiple spaces unless you consider having a second display (in this case a projector). Sometimes I run a second if I am using Prezi, but not with LibreOffice.

File requested

Here is a file that can demonstrate what I am showing.

Problem: When using Presenter Console in Impress the animation is very choppy.

How to reproduce the problem
1. go to preferences and choose impress
2. Click General
3. Check the box for Enable Presenter Console

press F5 or start the presentation. The animation is very choppy on the second screen.

To make the problem go away turn off uncheck Enable Presenter Console and start the presentation and the animation will be very smooth.

Your test file is OpenXML, i.e. Powerpoint ?

Do you see the same problem with an Impress (ODP) file ?

OKay so tested with 

LO5212

on OSX 10.11.6

with a Thunderbolt display attached to a MacBookPro retina

Confirming

How to reproduce :

1) Load the test file into Impress

2) Keep the Impress window on Macbook screen, do not move it to the separate display.

3) Press fn+F5 on MacbookPro keyboard

4) The slideshow appears on the separate display (Thunderbolt display), and the Presenter Console appears on the Macbook Pro retina screen

5) Now use the arrow keys on the Macbook Pro keyboard to move slides - notice how the transitions become choppy.



Note : I can not reproduce the problem if I drag the Impress window to the separate display first, then launch the slideshow. In those circumstances, the slide transitions remain smooth (at least from my testing), so this could be a workaround. The Presenter Console still gets displayed on the MacbookPro screen irrespectively.
