What is the difference between a slide transition and an animation in PowerPoint?
Answer: Transitions occur between slides; animations occur to objects within a slide
Transitions control how one slide changes to the next, while animations control how individual objects (text, shapes, images) appear or move on a slide.
In the Slide Show tab, what does 'Set Up Slide Show' allow you to configure?
Answer: Show type, slide range, loop settings, and pen/laser pointer options
Set Up Slide Show provides comprehensive options including presentation type (full screen, window, kiosk), slide range, looping, and pointer options.
What happens to manually set slide timings when you run Rehearse Timings again?
Answer: The new rehearsal timings replace the previous ones if you save them
After rehearsing again, PowerPoint prompts you to save the new timings, which overwrite the previously stored timings if you accept.
Which view is best for reviewing and adjusting slide timings across many slides at once?
Answer: Slide Sorter view
Slide Sorter view shows all slides as thumbnails with their timing values beneath, making it easy to review and adjust multiple timings at once.
What does the 'Presenter View' feature in PowerPoint display to the presenter during a slide show?
Answer: Current slide, next slide preview, speaker notes, and a timer
Presenter View shows the presenter the current slide, a preview of the next slide, speaker notes, elapsed time, and navigation controls on their private screen.
How do you advance to a specific slide number during a live PowerPoint presentation without the audience seeing you navigate?
Answer: Type the slide number and press Enter
During a slide show, typing a slide number and pressing Enter jumps directly to that slide without displaying intermediate slides.
