P lace the cursor in the position to insert a picture. Then drag an orange rectangle to the right to delay its timing.Inserting pictures helps to enrich and beautify the slides. To accomplish this, click any animation, click its down arrow, and choose Show Advanced Timeline. For example, I wanted the larger quote to fade out a little later. You may find that you want to make some minor adjustments to the timing.
Click the Play button in the Custom Animation pane to watch the animaton. Set the speed to Medium and the start to With Previous. Set its speed to Slow and its start to With Previous. Set the start in the Start drop-down list to With Previous. Set the speed in the Speed drop-down list. Select the shorter quote and choose Add Effect> Entrance> Fade. You may need to adjust this later, but I found that Medium worked best. Choose a speed from the Speed drop-down list. The Start for the second line should be With Previous. The Start for the first line on the task pane’s list of animations should be On Click. The lines should appear to come from the full quote to the shorter quote. In the direction text box, choose a direction. Display the Custom Animation task pane. (Click one, press Shift, and click the second line.) Watch the video to see what it looks like. You can now read the entire paragraph to the audience, and then click to fade in the duplicate with the red text when you want to focus on that shorter section. In the Speed text box, choose the desired speed. With the duplicate still selected, choose Add Effect> Entrance> Fade. (In PowerPoint 2007, click the Animations tab> Custom Animations.) Use the arrow keys to move the duplicate exactly on top of the original. Select the border and press Ctrl + D to duplicate it. Create the text in a placeholder or text box. There is an animation effect that changes font color, but it only works on an entire paragraph, so instead you can duplicate the text placeholder, change the color of the section of the text that you want to emphasize, and then just fade in the second placeholder on top of the first one. The first way is to simply change the color of the text. There are many ways to do this and I’ll present two in this tip.
