Formatting shapes and objects

Microsoft PowerPoint Presentation and Effects
Instead of using objects "as is", as we have done so far, you can enhance their looks by modifying the colors or even their original shape. Among the available options, you can paint an object with a different color or fill it with a special pattern.

If you use the AutoContent Wizard to create a presentation, the sample you select has preset font characteristics. If you create a blank presentation, the application has a default font that will be applied to the presentation. If you change the Slides design of a presentation, each sample has its own set of features that include the font. But at any time, you can change the font to suit your own taste.

Animations and Transitions
Microsoft PowerPoint / Presentation and Effects
An animation is the ability to move objects in a slide without your direct intervention during a presentation. For example, instead of displaying the main title directly when a slide comes up, you may want it to show one word at a time. Imagine you have a picture in a slide but you want to introduce the picture before displaying it. To achieve this, you can delay the picture. Furthermore, if you have a picture with various parts, you can show these parts one at a time. Based on this, you can see that animation can add very dramatic effects to your presentation.
