Learn PowerPoint 2010: Trigger Animations

PowerPoint’s animation options allow users to create a plethora of movement effects, all the way from the amazing to the dizzying. However, most of these animation effects have events associated with them — the three main events are On Click, With Previous, and After Previous. When you use the On Click animation event, PowerPoint offers an extra option so that your animated objects swings into movement when you click an entirely different object on your slide — this extra option is called a Trigger animation — you cause a click on one object to trigger an animation of another slide object. Also, you can you Trigger animations to cause media events as well, such as playing a sound or video clip. As mentioned earlier, we would like to paraphrase that Trigger animations work only with an On Click animation event applied to the animated object.

Learn PowerPoint 2011 for Mac: Group Pictures

Many times you may place several pictures on your slide — these may be just inserted in a haphazard manner and pictures of different sizes may be scattered within the slide area. In addition, you may also have some shapes or other slide objects placed on the slide. To arrange them all properly would result in a more aesthetic slide. We have already explored some techniques that will help you arrange your pictures and other content — look at our Resize, Rotate, and Flip Pictures and Align and Distribute Pictures tutorials. Moving ahead, we will explore how you can group pictures on your slide in this tutorial.

Learn PowerPoint 2010: Animation Sounds

Adding an animation to any slide object imparts movement of some sort to that object, and draws the attention of the audience. Of course, you can tweak the animation event, the speed of the animation, and also the delay time before the animation happens. In this tutorial, we’ll explore how you can add sound to an animation — the combination of movement and sound makes it compelling for your audience to focus on the object that is being animated — but again, this sort of pizzazz only works if you use it sparingly to highlight the most important part of your presentation. Animation sounds play along with the animation — it is important that you use the perfect sound type for any animation — using clapping or blasting sounds is very cliché. Now that we have made you aware about the benefits and caveats of using sounds within animations in PowerPoint, let us go ahead and learn how to do so.
