MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / August 2006Automatic Slide Transition AFTER an Animation
Hi, I have created a slide master with a shape at the top which I want to remain on screen throughout the presentation. I also want my bullet pointed text to remain on screen until I am ready to go on to the next slide where upon the text would fade out but the shape would remain... At the moment the text appears bullet point by bullet point on a mouse click. Then I set a custom animation to fade the text out on a click... Problem is that I need a second click to advance to the next slide. Is it possible to get PPT to jump to the next slide automatically following the end of a custom animation? I read another thread that seemed to be similar to what I am asking but the answer didn't help. Thanks in advance! Tim What version of Office? > Hi, > [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > > Tim Sorry, 2003. > What version of Office? > [quoted text clipped - 18 lines] > > > > Tim The short answer is no. The longer answer is also no, but it doesn't look like no. Confused? There is no animation that will start a slide advance, but there is a slide advance that can start an animation. Seeing as how both of these are triggered using the same controls, you can fool people into thinking they are doing one, while actually doing the other. The key is in exact replicas. So, slide 1 is the slide that has the bullet points that you bring in. All but the last point should be on this slide. Slide 2 has an exact copy of slide 1, plus the last bullet point. On slide 2, set the animations to -- Last bullet point Advance after previous - Entrance - Wipe - Medium The first Slide 1 element Advance after previous - Exit - Fade - Medium The rest of the elements from Slide 1 and the last bullet point Advance with previous - Exit - Fade - Medium  SignatureBill Dilworth A proud member of the Microsoft PPT MVP Team Users helping fellow users. http://billdilworth.mvps.org -_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_ vestprog2@ Please read the PowerPoint FAQ pages. yahoo.

You have to create a shim slide to get this to work. It's actually harder to explain than to do. Here are some Google groups threads that discuss this. http://tinyurl.com/hupte or http://groups.google.com/groups?as_q=shim&num=10&scoring=r&hl=en&as_epq=&as_oq=& as_eq=&as_ugroup=microsoft.public.powerpoint&as_usubject=&as_uauthors=&lr=&as_dr rb=q&as_qdr=&as_mind=1&as_minm=1&as_miny=1981&as_maxd=18&as_maxm=8&as_maxy=2006& safe=off (same link -- just posted the short one in case the long one gets broken) SignatureEcho [MS PPT MVP] http://www.echosvoice.com What's new in PPT 2007? http://www.echosvoice.com/2007.htm Fixing PowerPoint Annoyances http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/powerpointannoy/ PPTLive!
