Applying Effects

When it comes to applying effects, you basically have two categories,
"automatic” and manual.

The "automatic" effects are Transitions, Slide Styles and Filters. These
effects are pre-built and ready to go. All you have to do is select your
desired effect and press Ok. Whatever motion, timing or adjustments are
needed for the effect will be created for you..

The manual effects are Motion effects and Adjustment effects. You'll use
these when starting with a blank canvas and creating your own, new
effects. You'll also use these manual options to customize existing effects.

Let's start with the "automatic" effects...

Applying Transition Effects
There are two ways you can apply a Transition effect. The first is to use the
Transition icon in the Slide List.

To Apply a Transition from the Slide List
1. Click on the Transition Icon on the right side of the
Slide Thumbnail in the Slide List.
2. From the Choose Transition window, browse
through the categories and select a Transition effect.
3. Double-click to apply the effect, or select and press the Apply
button.

As mentioned in Chapter 2, there are over 500 built-in Transition effects to
choose from. As you single-click on any effect, you will see a preview of
what each Transition Effect will look like when applied to your slide.
