Forget about learning complicated animation programs. In Microsoft PowerPoint® version 2002, adding animation for professional-looking presentations is not only easy, it's fun.

To apply a custom animation:

1. In normal view, display the slide that has the text or objects you want to animate.
2. Select the object you want to animate.
3. On the Slide Show menu, click Custom Animation.
4. In the Custom Animation task pane, click Add Effect, and do one or more of the following:

• If you want to make the text or object enter the slide show presentation with an effect, point to Entrance and then click an effect.
• If you want to add an effect to text or an object that is on the slide, point to Emphasis and then click an effect.
• If you want to add an effect to text or an object that makes it leave the slide, point to Exit and then click an effect.

 

Size Multiple Graphics at the Same Time                                        (All Versions) Often when you size artwork in PowerPoint, you need to size it so that several elements retain the same size relationship to each other. The best way to accomplish this is to size all those elements at the same time. Let's suppose you have three pictures that need sizing and must retain their size relationship. Click on the first picture then hold down the Shift key and click the other two pictures. Now use the mouse to drag the pictures to their new size.
