Select the Animation Effect to be Modified

To modify the custom animation effect, select the drop-down arrow beside each of the three categories - Start, Direction and Speed.

  1. Start
    • On click - start the animation on the mouse click
    • With previous - start the animation at the same time as the previous animation (could be another animation on this slide or the slide transition of this slide)
    • After previous - start the animation when the previous animation or transition has finished

  2. Direction
    • This option will vary depending on which Effect you have chosen. Directions can be from top, from right side, from bottom and so on

  3. Speed
    • Speeds vary from Slow to Very Fast

Note - You will need to modify the options of each effect that you have applied to items on the slide.
