Automatic Slide Transitions

S

Standingwarrior

I am putting a sound clip on every slide. I would like the presentation to
automatically go to the next slide AFTER the sound clip has completed. Since
the sound clips vary from lasting 10 seconds up to 1 minute, it won't work to
just put a timer on each slide.

Is there a way to set up the presentation so that the entire sound clip will
play and then it will automatically advance to the next slide after a brief
pause?

Thanks for you help!

Hi Standingwarrior

Have a go at this:
1. Add a shape off the side of a slide
2. Give it an exit animation (or entrance - doesn't really matter) set to
'after previous'
3. Copy to every slide
4. Set auto transition to, say, 1 second

PowerPoint should wait until all the animations are done before moving to
the next slide (I'm afraid I can't test it right now but I'm fairly certain
it will work)
