Add Animations in power point 2007

Animations

·         Animations control how objects move onto, off of, and around your slides.

    Add Animations

·         You can animate the objects on your PowerPoint slides.

·         PowerPoint provides four types of animations: Entrance, Emphasis, Exit, and Motion Paths. An Entrance animation determines the manner in which an object appears on a slide;

·         Example, an object can move onto a slide.

·         An Emphasis animation does something to draw attention to an object; for example, the object can become larger.

·         An Exit animation determines the manner in which an object leaves a slide; for example, an object can move off a slide.

·         A Motion Paths animation determines how an object moves around a slide; for example, an object can move from left to right.

·         After you add an animation, you can use the Custom Animation pane to modify it by choosing an effect.

·         Choosing an effect enables you to define what starts the animation, its properties (such the direction from which an object moves onto the slide), and control the speed of the animation.

·         In addition, you can have an animation start when you click the mouse, start along with the previous animation, or start at a specified time after the previous animation.

·         If the Auto Preview box is checked on the Custom Animation pane, PowerPoint provides you with preview of your animation after you create it and each time you modify it.

·         You can also use the Play button  on the Custom Animation pane to preview an animation.
