146 Chapter 7 Slide Transitions and Object Builds
3 Select an item on the slide and choose an option from the Effect pop-up menu.
You can select graphic objects, bulleted text, tables, or charts, as well as sound files
placed on an individual slide (represented by an audio icon).
4 If appropriate, choose an option from the Direction pop-up menu.
5 Choose an option from the Delivery pop-up menu.
6 To set how much time it takes to complete the transition, type a value in the Duration
field (or click the arrows).
After you select an effect for each item you want to animate, you can easily reorder
the items. You can also specify whether you want each animation to begin
automatically (after a specified time) or on click.
Note: If you group an object that has a build effect assigned to it, the effect is
removed. Ungrouping a grouped object with a build assigned to it removes the build
effect.
Set how long it takes to
complete the build.

drawer to reorder objects.

direction, and build order
for each object.

offscreen in specific groups.
