Slide Transitions

You can control how slides are transitioned from one to the other by using the Slide Transition feature. To apply transition effects to your slides, follow the instructions below.
  1. Select the slide to which you want to add a transition.
  2. Click on the dropdown arrow in the upper right-hand corner of the Task Pane.
  3. Select the option Slide Transition.
  4. A list of various slide transitions will appear in the Task Pane.

  5. Choose the desired transition, speed and sound.
  6. The transition effect will be demonstrated and applied to the selected slide.
  7. To apply the transition to all of the slides, click on the Apply to All Slides button.
  8. To test your slide transitions, click on the Play button.
  9. Once satisfied, save your presentation.

Note: It’s a good rule of thumb to have the same transition for all slides within a business presentation. Random transitions are fun for in-house presentations.
