Microsoft PowerPoint 2016 Step by Step

Chapter 8: Add sound and movement to slides

PowerPoint displays the slide timing next to the thumbnail

When you configure a transition, it affects the entrance of the slide. You can’t specifi- cally configure an exit transition, but some of the transitions have an effect on the exit of the preceding slide. You can, however, configure whether the move to the next slide is manually initiated or happens automatically after the slide has been displayed for a specific length of time (which can be from 0.01 seconds to just under 24 minutes).

SEE ALSO  For more information about slide timings, see “Rehearse a presentation and set slide timings” in Chapter 10, “Prepare and deliver presentations.”

To select slides to apply or configure transitions 1. Do either of the following:

● ● Display the presentation in Normal view, and select one or more slides in the Thumbnails pane. ● ● Display the presentation in Slide Sorter view, and select one or more slides in the Slides pane.

TIP  To select multiple contiguous slides, click the first slide, hold down the Shift key, and then click the last slide. To select multiple noncontiguous slides, click the first slide, hold down the Ctrl key, and then click each additional slide.
