Transition glitch and multiple keystrokes to advance slide

[bob matthews]

This is my first experience with Powerpoint for mac. For some reason,
at the end of some of the slide transitions, there is an extra delay
time with ghosting (re-appearing from the slide I am exiting) has
suddenly developed. I can't seem to get rid of it. The other issue is
needing to transition from the first slide to a second slide with 1
keystroke once it gets to the last bulleted item on the slide. It takes
3 to get to the next slide. I can't find a specific command that
specifies once the last graphic or text is exited, that it go to the
next slide.

Hi Bob,

Control-click (or right click if you have a multi-button mouse) on a
slide object and choose Custom Animation.

You will see a dialog box that shows you the animations currently on the
slide. You can adjust the settings for each animation and also the order
in which they will play.

It sounds to me that you have added some custom animations that are set
to require a click before the slide is allowed to finish.

The default behavior is that a slide will advance to the next slide with
a mouse click. This can be changed by adding custom animations that
themselves need to be activated by mouse clicks.
