You can use animation to introduce objects onto a
slide one at a time or with special animation effects. For example, a
bulleted list can appear one bulleted item at a time, or a picture or
chart can fade in gradually. There are four types of animations (New!):
Entrance, Exit, Emphasis and Motion Path (animations along a line). You
can apply one or more animations to the same object. To quickly see if
you like an animation, point to a name in the Animation list to display
a live preview of it. If you like it, you can apply it. You can also
design your own customized animations, including those with your own
effects and sound elements. If you no longer want to use an animation,
you can remove it.
