MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / August 2006Make it possible to apply a custom annimation after every carriage
Nomally after you type your presetation and if you want to add custom animation you have to go line for line in each slide and you have set the first line of ever slide to "with previous" or else you will have to click twice to advance the slide. What would be great is if you can make it to where you could apply a custom animation to entire project based up on carriage return and it would automatically make the first line of everslide default to "with previous" Try Animation schemes - Fade in one by one.

If I understand correctly in order to use animation schemes you have to have your text in the defaut place holders and you have to use bullets for it recognize the indvidual lines that need to be animated and as far as I know you cannot use random effects with animation schemes. > Try Animation schemes - Fade in one by one. > [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > > > > http://www.microsoft.com/office/community/en-us/default.mspx?mid=9a016792-ae37-4 044-aeec-f5e64f7a7ef5&dg=microsoft.public.powerpoint If you add custom animation on the placeholder in slide master (View > Master > Slide Master), you can apply the effect and set "With Previous" on the first line which will make the changes globally on all the slides.

The reason why I never uses them is because I like to use the full width of my screen and I like my text box to be at the very top of the screen. Is there a way to do this because I have not been able to figure out how with the presets and when I draw a text box in master view its not there when I go back to to the regular screen and I cant get what you suggested to work by using this method. > If you add custom animation on the placeholder in slide master (View > Master > > Slide Master), you can apply the effect and set "With Previous" on the [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > > > > http://www.microsoft.com/office/community/en-us/default.mspx?mid=9a016792-ae37-4 044-aeec-f5e64f7a7ef5&dg=microsoft.public.powerpoint So why can't you customize the slide master to format the placeholders to the way you described--make them bigger, adjust the position, etc.? Their placement and size isn't locked in stone.

Tell me what I am doing wrong. I go into master setup delete all the placehoders execpt 1 and readjust it to how I like it but when I go back to the regular view it always puts 2 place holders instead and there no longer edge to edge. If this problem can be solved wont I still have to put a bullet before each sentence I want it to apply an animation scheme to? > So why can't you customize the slide master to format the placeholders to the > way you described--make them bigger, adjust the position, etc.?

Instead, in master view take the first placeholder and arrange it where you want and stretch it to the size you want. Then do the same with the second placeholder. With the second placeholder selected, click the bullets button in the formatting toolbar to turn bullets off. You could even go so far as to add your animation to the master slide, then you wouldn't need to touch the animations for the individual slides. Next, return to regular view and bring up the Slide Layout task pane. Decide if you want just a title or a title with more lines. If title only, select the "Title Only" slide layout. Put your title text in that box and add the graphics, or whatever else to the slides. If you want title with additional lines, use the regular layout. It should show with no bullets. Does that get you closer? If not, let us know more about why you are setting up your slides with the text so close to the edge. I would imagine that while it might make it easier for you, it might also get annoying for those viewing the presentation.... You may have a reason for it, if so tell it to us. Knowing that reason might help all of us help you better. SignatureKathryn Jacobs, Microsoft MVP PowerPoint and OneNote Author of Kathy Jacobs on PowerPoint - Available now from Holy Macro!

It helped some but I have come to realization that it just won't do exactly what I would like it to do. The only layout choices seems to involve both the Title and the text but not just the text. For what I do with it I dont need a Title just text. Now what I did to accomplish my goal was to delete the title placeholder and restreach the Text place holder to the full length of the screen. Then I simply CNTRL D that slide so the next slides would be the same. This made it possilbe to assign all the carriage returns with the animation schemes. That does accomplish what I asked for but unfortantly the animation scheme is limited on choices. It would be nice if "random animation" or some of the other animatiions availble under custom animations were able to be used under animation schemes. I don't want to turn this into a novel but I want to explain how I use power point. I am a preacher and I primarly use it to display the verses I use with in my sermon so that all can follow along. Now I know the accepted rule is not to have more than 5 words or so per line and to have those spaces on the left and right, but those rules don't apply to my situation and no one has any problems following along with the verse. This why I use the entire screen exept I dont use the very bottom because some sitting in the back can see the very bottom. I use power point with every sermon and class so I am always looking for new ways to speed up my productivity. For an example of how I use cut and paste this into your browswer: http://www.lgchurchofchrist.com/Thetruthabout%20gambling.ppt > My suggestion: > First don't delete the placeholders.
