Slide Show Ending

[Terri V]

I have inserted animation into my slide but when the show ends, I want the
entire slide to stay on the screen instead of going black and instructing you
to hit the Esc key. I also want my users to be able to print it off
(complete).

 

[David M. Marcovitz]

There is a setting under the Tools Menu > Options > View for End With
Black Slide. Uncheck this so that you won't get the black slide. However,
that isn't really what you want, and it only applies to your computer.
Instead, you want to eliminate the automatic slide transition on the last
slide. Go to the last slide and choose Slide Transition from the Slide
Show menu. Uncheck the box for Automatically advance.

For printing a single slide users who are using the PowerPoint Viewer can
hit ctrl-P to print. If you only want them to print one slide, you'll
have to give them instructions for which slide to choose from the dialog
box. If they are not using the PowerPoint Viewer, I think they will have
to go to Normal View to print the slide.
