How to Stop PowerPoint Slide show

PowerPoint is recognized as the industry standard tool for presentations and slideshows, and as part of the Microsoft Office suite of applications, the latest version comes with a wealth of useful features and tools. When running a business slideshow, the user has full control over most aspects of the presentation, including how long individual frames are shown for, whether or not they advance automatically, and whether or not the presentation as a whole is set to loop again from the beginning. You can disable automatic looping for individual slides or for the entire presentation.

Individual Slides

Step 1

Select the slide you wish to edit from the thumbnail list on the left-hand side of the PowerPoint interface.

Step 2

Click "Transitions" on the ribbon menu at the top of the interface to open the tab containing the "Advance Slide" options, on the right-hand side.

Step 3

Untick the option labelled "After:" to prevent the slideshow from progressing after a certain time period has passed. If you also wish to disable the ability to advance the slide with a mouse click, untick the "On Mouse Click" check box. Changes are saved immediately.

Entire Presentation

Step 1

Click on the "Slide Show" tab on the ribbon menu at the top of the interface, then click the "Set Up Slide Show" icon to bring up the associated dialog.

Step 2

Untick the check box marked "Loop continuously until Esc" under the "Show options" heading to prevent the presentation from starting again with the first slide after the last one has been displayed.

Step 3

Check the box marked "Manually" to over-ride any timings associated with any of the slides in the presentation. This is a useful alternative to unticking the "After:" box on each individual slide. It does not affect the "On Mouse Click" setting for each slide.

Step 4

Click "OK" to confirm your choices and to disable the looping feature of the presentation.

How to Apply Custom Animation Effects in Presention 2013

Kingsoft Presentation offers several animation effects that can be applied to text, pictures and other content. These animation effects are easy to use and allow the user to make each and every slide unique.

The settings of each animation effect can be adjusted to fit all kinds of needs. These settings allow the user to customize the motion path, speed and duration of each animation effect.

If there are animation effects on a slide, they will appear in order and can be rearranged within the Custom Animation task window.

Tips: Animation schemes can be used to simplify and speed up the designing process of animation effects.

Types of Custom Animation

There are three general categories for custom animation effects in Kingsoft Presentation.

• 1. There are 52 different Entrance Effects which control how objects initially appear on the slides.
• 2. There are 31 different Emphasis Effects which control the actions that objects perform on the slides.
• 3. There are 52 different Exit Effects which control how objects disappear from the slides.

Add Animation to Text or Objects

To insert an animation effect, follow the steps below:

Step 1 Choose a slide containing text or other objects. Select the text or objects to which you want to add animations.

Step 2 In the Animation tab, click Custom Animation  and the Custom Animation task window will appear on the right.

Step 3 In the Custom Animation task window, click the Add Effects icon  and the following options will become available in the drop-down list:

Step 4 Choose Entrance in the drop-down list to add an animation effect to the object when entering the slide.

Step 5 Choose Emphasis in the drop-down list to make an object perform a special effect when presenting the slide.

Step 6 Choose Exit in the drop-down list to add an animation effect to the object when exiting the slide.

Step 7 Choose Motion Paths to designate a specific path for the object to follow on the slide.

Tips:

• 1. After applying animation effects to objects, number markers will appear on the objects. These markers indicate the order that the animations will perform when presenting the slide and the ordered list can be found in the task window. However, these markers will not be shown when the presentation is in the Slide Show mode.
• 2. Selecting Play in the Custom Animation task window will show a preview of the animations.
• 3. Click the Slide Show button to preview the slide in the Slide Show mode with all of the animation effects included.

• 1. Modify when to start the animation effects by choosing among the three Start options: On Click, With Previous, and After Previous. On Click will start the animation effect when the presenter clicks the mouse.With Previous will start the animation effect at the same time as the animation effect preceding it. After Previous will start the animation effect after the animation effect preceding it has finished.
• 2. Modify the direction objects enter or exit the slide form with the Direction option. Some animation effects do not have this option due to the nature of the animation effect.
• 3. Modify the time necessary for an animation effect to perform with the Speed option. The available options areVery Slow, Slow, Medium, Fast, and Very Fast. See below:
