Getting started…

Show Time!

Not only can you modify the appearance of text and slides, but you can also change how the slide show presents itself. The Slide Show menu gives you the ability to change how slides transition from one to the other, and you can also change the way text appears on the slide.

Slide Transitions To keep your slide show

interesting, you may want to consider applying slide transitions to your slides. A transition is an effect used to introduce slides from one to another. You can access the slide transitions by going to the menu bar and selecting Slide Show >> Slide Transition.

Slide Design When you select a text box, an

image object, a graph, or any other sort of PowerPoint object, you can choose to apply an animation to it. View the Animation Schemes by going to the menu bar and selecting Slide Show >> Animation Schemes.

Custom Animations

For more advanced work with animations, you can choose to make your own special effects to apply to objects. Go to the menu bar and select Slide Show >> Custom Animation. The custom animation options will appear in the “Slide Design” panel on the right side of the screen. You can come up with just about any kind of combination of transitions, directions, timing, and grouping of words/letters/objects.

Setup Presentation

When you have finished your slide show presentation, you can do a bit of prep-work before you view your presentation. Go to the menu bar and select Slide Show >> Set Up Show
