Adding Slide Transitions
Purpose:  To add transition effects between slides.
1.
On the top toolbar, click on Slide Show and then Slide Transition.


2.
The Slide Transition dialog box will appear.  Use the pull-down arrow under Effects to choose the type of transition you would like.  Click Apply to All to have the effect be consistent for all slides in the presentation.  This is a better choice than choosing a different effect for each slide because too many effects distract from your message.


3.
Underneath the pull-down arrow are three speeds for the effects.  To set the speed of the effect, click the circle in front of Slow, Medium, or Fast.


4.
If you are creating a presentation that will run without a speaker, then change the setting under Advance to Automatically after and add a setting.  You can also add a Sound here.
