RE: Projector

Hi Joanne,

To sort out the projector settings you need to be looking at your desktop, then right click and highlight the Properties setting. You will see the "Display Properties" dialog box here you must click the Settings tab.

Under the display, move the slider to adjust the display resolution of your laptop. If you are not sure which setting to choose, try 800x600 pixels; this is a usual setting for many projector systems.

If you will be using music or sound in your presentation, connect the cable between your laptop computer and the projector, and test the volume by playing a sound file or part of your presentation.

Good luck

PowerPoint tip:

Animating charts imported from Excel

Once you have imported an Excel chart into a Powerpoint slide, it is possible to apply animation to individual components (e.g. each bar) of the chart.

Click on the imported Excel chart, then go to Draw - Ungroup on the Drawing toolbar (usually located at the bottom of the screen).

A message will appear warning that ungrouping will change the chart into a different type of object - click Yes, then go to Draw - Ungroup again.

You should now see the chart has been broken up into all its individual components.

Right-click on a component that you wish to apply animation to; then select Custom animation and apply animation using the task pane on the right of the screen.
