Vary the sequence with simple click-and-drag reordering

Animations are a great way to add interest to aPowerPointpresentation.

But, animations may not always appear on the screen the way you intended.

When your animation goes wrong, change the order of the animations.

PowerPoint animations may be presented in any order.

The Animation pane shows every animation on the slide in the order the animations will execute.

Reordering takes effect immediately.

Animation Transition Best Practices

Using too many animations in a presentation can confuse your audience.

Recommended best practices include:

Animations pair well with presentations that include recorded audio, such as narrations.

It’s more difficult to get the timings right for slides that include embedded video along with animation pieces.

When your animations are ordered properly, play the entire presentation from the beginning for a final quality check.

Don’t forget to preserve your work.
