Powerpoint 2007 - one bullet at a time

[Bobby]

Hi. I am exploring PP2007.

I am having problems with the animation effects.

I liked PP2003's simple way of sliding (or fading) one bullet after
another into view. I can't find equivalent functionality in PP2007. I
can only see a way of forcing the whole slide to come into view. How do
I get one bullet point at a time to appear?

Thanks.

Bobby

The actual animation settings are exactly the same as in 2003. Perhaps
you're just having trouble actually finding where to set those? If you hit
"custom animation" on the animation ribbon, it will open the Custom
Animation task pane, where you'd proceed as usual.

If that's not the problem, holler back!

Select the textbox, click Animation.
Click on the animate dropdown field, select Fade: "By 1st level paragraph".

If you have sub/ second-level bullets and etc, click on the custom animation
button to bring up the panel.
On the panel, click on the fade effect (do not expand the list) and set the
Start to "On Click". This will change all bullets to fade in one at a time.
