Animate a Slide Object

You can add dynamism and visual appeal to your

slide show by animating a slide object. An animation

is a visual effect applied to a specific slide element. In

this section, you learn how to animate slide objects

such as title placeholders, as well as content such as

pictures, clip art, and tables.

You can add an entrance effect, which brings the object into the slide; an

exit effect, which removes the object from the slide; or an emphasis effect,

which emphasizes the object in some way.
