MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / September 2007Scroll credits up half of the slide
I'm creating a "welcome" slide. I have a background picture and some text that says welcome on the top half of my slide. I want the names of the visitors' names to scroll up the bottom half of the slide, just below "welcome". Currently, the names scroll up the entire slide, right in front of my background picture. Thanks in advance for your suggestions. --Dorci Select the names, click Add Effect > Entrance > Crawl In. Set the speed of your preference. If they are in bullets and you want them to Crawl In at the same time, double click on the added effect, click Text Animation tab, and select "As one object" under Group text.

I need it to keep scrolling until the last name has come and gone. > Select the names, click Add Effect > Entrance > Crawl In. > Set the speed of your preference.

Right click and set its fill to "backgound" Go!
