Ever struggled to keep your audience focused on the right bullet point? With this simple PowerPoint trick, you easily can. This tutorial reveals how to apply a professional fly-in and dim effect to your presentation slides. Discover how to animate individual text lines within a single placeholder and set previous points to gracefully fade to a grey colour as you progress. Stop losing your audience's attention to a wall of static text and start guiding their focus exactly where you want it.

Target Audience

Ideal for those looking to streamline workflows and make more effective use of Microsoft 365 applications.

Learning Outcomes

- Animate individually: Learn why and how to apply animations to single bullet points rather than animating the entire placeholder at once.

- Control direction: Configure the fly-in animation effect options so that your text enters smoothly from the left side of the slide.

- Access advanced tools: Locate and open the Animation Pane to view, manage, and fine-tune all the effects applied in your presentation.

- Create a dim effect: Use the "after animation" enhancement settings to change a bullet point's colour to light grey once you have finished discussing it.

- Apply in bulk: Select multiple animations within the Animation Pane to quickly apply the dimming effect to several bullet points simultaneously.
