If you want to add shapes such as arrows and speech bubbles, then follow these steps. Firstly, go to the Insert tab and select Shapes. Choose a shape from the dropdown, then left click and drag your mouse on the slide you want the shape inserting.
If you want your shape to stay in proportion then why not try holding down the Shift key as you draw the shape.
If you want to make moving to the next slide in your presentation more exciting, then why not apply a transition. Just click on the slide you want to apply a transition to and then go to the transitions tab and choose a transition from the ribbon. It will also give you a preview of what it will look like when you come to play your presentation.
If you want to add some extra design to your slides then why not look at the array of icons you can place in a presentation. To do this, go to the Insert tab and select Icons. Once the icons have loaded, work through the categories and choose the best icon for your presentation.
To make a word or phrase stand out from the text around it, you could use the Underline tool.
Select the text you want to apply an underline to and then click on the Underline tool on the Home tab.
You can also use the shortcut CTRL + U to apply an underline.
If you want to insert different symbols into your presentation just go to the Insert tab and select Symbol on the Ribbon. This will open a window where you can find the symbol you want. Once you have found it, select the icon and click on insert then close the window. This will now have placed the symbol into your slide.
If you need to insert equations into a presentation then why not have a look at the Equation tool. Go to the Insert tab and select Equation, and then choose the equation you want to insert into your slide.
If you want to copy text or an object to another location, for example a new slide, use the Copy tool. Select the text or object you want to copy, then go to the Home tab > Clipboard and select Copy, then click in the location you want the text or object to be placed, then go to Home tab > Clipboard and select Paste.
If you’re a fan of shortcuts, use CTRL + X to cut and CTRL + V to paste.
If you’re unsure about some text in a presentation, instead of deleting the text, how about putting a line through it.
To do this, select the text you are unsure about and click on the Strikethrough tool on the Home tab. This will then place a line through the selected text. This means if you do want to keep the text, you can remove the strikethrough line.
If you want to apply the date onto a slide, go to the insert tab and select Date and Time. Then choose the date format you want to apply.
If you want to distinguish text then why not format it to Italic.
To do this, select the text you want to make italic, then on the Home tab select the Italic icon.
You can also use the shortcut CTRL + I to make text italic.
In PowerPoint you can apply animations to the content of your slides to make your slideshow more interesting. To do so, select the text that you want to apply an animation to and then go to the Animations tab. Once there, select an animation from the ribbon. It will also give you a preview to show you what it will look like when you come to play your presentation.
