A slide transition is the visual effect that occurs when you move from one

slide to the next during a presentation. You can control the speed, add
sound, and customize the look of transition effects.Add a transition to a slide

1. Select the slide you want to add a transition to.

2. Select the Transitions tab and choose a transition. Select a transition
to see a preview.
3. Select Effect Options to choose the direction and nature of the
transition.
4. Select Preview to see what the transition looks like.

Select Apply To All to add the transition to the entire presentation.Remove

a transition

A transition determines how a slide enters, and how the previous slide exits.
So if (for example) you didn't want a transition effect between slides 2 and 3,
you would remove the transition from slide 3.

1. Select the slide that has the transition you want to remove.
2. On the Transitions tab, in the Transitions gallery, select None.

If you want to remove all transitions from the presentation, after you
select None, select Apply to All. Change a transition

Only one transition effect can be applied to a slide at a time. So if a slide

already has a transition effect applied to it, you can change to a different
effect by going to the Transitions tab and simply selecting the effect you
prefer.

If you want to change an existing effect by modifying the timing or direction

of it, you can that by using the options on the Transitions tab of the ribbon,
at the far end:

1. Select the slide that has the transition you want to modify.
2. On the Transitions tab, select Effect Options, then choose an option
from the menu that appears.
3. In the Timing group on the Transitions tab, you can change the
duration of the effect. You can also specify whether the effect takes
place after a mouse click or after a certain amount of time passes.
There are also options for adding a sound to the transition effect or
applying the transition to all slides in the slide show.

Set the timing and speed of a

transition
You can modify the duration of a transition, modify the transition effect, and
even specify a sound to play during a transition. Also, you can specify the
time to spend on a slide before advancing to the next.

Set the speed of a transition

Use Duration to set transition speed. A shorter duration means that a slide
advances faster, and a larger number makes the slide advance more slowly.

1. Select the slide that has the transition that you want to modify.
2. On the Transitions tab, in the Timing group, in the Duration box,
type the number of seconds that you want.

Tip: If you want all the slide show's transitions to use the same speed, click
Apply to All.

Modify the effect options for a transition

Many, but not all, of the transitions in PowerPoint can be customized.

1. Select the slide that has the transition you want to modify.
2. On the Transitions tab, in the Transition to This Slide group, click
Effect Options and select the option that you want.

In this example, a Gallery transition is applied to the slide and the From
Right option is selected.

presentation.

Specify a time to advance to the next slide

Advance Slide sets the transition timing by specifying how long a slide
stays in view before the transition to the next slide begins. If no timing is
selected, slides advance when you click the mouse.

1. Select the slide that you want to set the timing for.
2. On the Transitions tab, in the Timing group, under Advance Slide,
do one of the following:

 To make the slide advance to the next slide when you click the
mouse, select the On Mouse Click check box.
 To make the slide advance automatically, select the After check
box, and then enter the number of minutes or seconds that you
 want. The timer starts when the final animation or other effect on
the slide finishes.
 To enable both the mouse and automatic advance, select both
the On Mouse Click check box and the After check box. Then,
at After, enter the number of minutes or seconds that you want.
The slide will advance automatically, but you can advance it
more quickly by clicking the mouse.

Tip: If you want all the slides to advance using the same speed, click Apply
to All.

Set a sound to play during a transition

1. Select the slide that has the transition that you want to modify.
2. On the Transitions tab, in the Timing group, in the Sound list, select
the sound that you want.

Note: If you want to use your own sound, in the Sound list, select
Other Sound. Then, in the Add Audio dialog box, select the sound
that you want, and then click OK
You can record your computer screen and related audio, and then
embed it in your PowerPoint slide—or you can save it as a separate

file.
1. Open the slide that you want to put the screen recording on.
2. On the Insert tab of the ribbon, select Screen Recording.
3. On the Control Dock, choose Select Area (or if you want to select the
entire screen for recording, press Windows logo key+Shift+F). You'll

see the cross-haired cursor . Select and drag to select the area
of the screen you want to record. The minimum size area you can
record is 64x64 pixels.
Tip: PowerPoint automatically records the audio and the mouse
pointer, so by default those options are selected on the control dock.
To turn them off, deselect Audio and Record Pointer.
4. Select Record. Use Pause as needed and Stop when you're done.
Note: Unless you pin the Control Dock to the screen, it will slide up
into the margin while you record. To make the unpinned Control Dock
reappear, point the mouse cursor at the top of the screen.
5. Your video is added to the slide. Right-click the video frame, select
the Start icon and pick how you want your video to start: In Click
Sequence, Automatically, or When Clicked On.

select the Style icon, and pick another shape.
