Use slide timing features to make sure that
your presentation is not too long or too fast. You can specify the
amount of time given to each slide or use Rehearse Timings. By
rehearsing timings, you can vary the amount of time each slide appears
on the screen. If you want the timings to take effect, make sure the
show is set to use timings in the Set Up Show dialog box. In Slide Show
View, a mouse click always advances a slide, even if the set timing has
not elapsed, and holding down the mouse button prevents a timed
transition until you release it.
Set or Edit Timings Between Slides
- 1. Click the slide(s) to which you want to set or change slide timings.
- 2. Click the Transitions tab.
- 3. Select the After check box.
- 4. Enter the time (in seconds) before the presentation automatically advances to the next slide after displaying the entire slide.
- 5. To apply the settings to all slides, click the Apply To All button.
