Exceptions
|
Slide Masters |
Presenter 360 doesn't support animations on PowerPoint slide masters. Add animations to the content slides in your course instead. |
|
Grouped Objects |
You can animate text separately from its container shape, but only when the shape isn't grouped with other objects on the slide. When objects are grouped, text will always animate with the group. |
|
WordArt |
You can animate text all at once, by word, or by letter. However, when WordArt styles are applied to text, Presenter will animate the text all at once. |
|
3-D Objects |
You can animate text as one object or by paragraph. However, when 3-D effects are applied to the container shape, Presenter will animate text as a single object. |
