Use a transition between slides and an animation on an individual object.

This guide is based on application documentation. Its full procedure has not yet been tested directly; some details may vary by operating system and version.

Step by step

  1. Select a slide thumbnail and open Transitions.
  2. Choose Slide Transition to open the transition controls. Select an effect and adjust its duration or advance options as required.
  3. Preview the current slide to check the transition. A transition controls how the slide enters; it does not animate every object.
  4. To animate an object, return to the slide, select the object and open Animations.
  5. Choose Animation to open the animation controls, then add an effect and review its order and start setting.
  6. Start the slide show and advance through the edited slides. Return to the editor with Escape and save your changes.
Before you continue

Use effects sparingly and preview on the screen you will present on.

Selecting a slide and selecting an object are different: object animations require an object selection.
