Making certain slides disappear automatically
Hi
Is it possible to have alternate slides disappear automatically without the presenter having to click on to the next slide? I would only like the alternate slides to be on show for a second before moving on to the next slide.
Also, can text be made 40% transparent?
Thanks
Kate
RE: Making certain slides disappear automatically
Dear Kate
Thank you for attending PowerPoint Introduction course!! I hope you enjoyed the course and benefited from it.
I believe you are going to be attending PowerPoint Advanced course on 27 Feb '09. You'll be covering something called Custom shows.
With custom show you can select specific slides.
To create custom show please follow these steps:
1. Slide Show > Custom Slide show...
2. Click New... button
3. Type the name in the Slide Show name: box
4. Choose the slides (in your case alternative slides) and double-click on them so that they appear in eth Slides in the custom show area on the right hand side. Press OK button.
When you click on the show button and you'll see that only the alternate slides will be displayed in the slide show.
If you want the slides to move on automatically then you can choose Slide Show > Slide Transition...
In the Advance slide section Choose Automatically and then specify how many seconds you want the slide to remain in the show.
If you want all the slides to have the same timings then you can press Apply to all button.
The query about making Text transparent is not possible. However if you know what WordArt you can type the text and then make that transparent. If you need help in this then let me know and I should be able to provide you some instructions.
I hope this has answered your query.
If this has answered your query then I would request you to please mark the question as resolved!! If not and you have a specific question related to this then please post it as a new question and we should be able to provide you the solution for it!!
Kindest Regards
