Transitions are visual effects that play as you move from one slide to the next. For example, the Push transition makes a slide appear to push the previous slide off the screen. You can add a transition between any two slides in your presentation. A Magic Move is a transition that creates the effect of objects moving from their positions on one slide to new positions on the next slide when you play your presentation.
The easiest way to create a Magic Move transition is to create a slide and add objects to it, then duplicate the slide and rearrange, resize or reorient the objects on the duplicated slide. Any objects appearing on both slides become part of the transition. Any objects appearing on the first slide, but not the following slide, fade out. Any objects appearing on the following slide, but not the original slide, fade in.

A transition can be as simple as fading to the next slide or as flashy as an eye-catching effect. PowerPoint makes it easy to apply transitions to some or all of your slides, giving your presentation a polished, professional look. Optional: Download our practice presentation. Watch the video below to learn more about applying transitions in PowerPoint. There are three categories of unique transitions to choose from, all of which can be found on the Transitions tab.
Transitions are best used in moderation. Adding too many transitions can make your presentation look a little silly and can even be distracting to your audience. Consider using mostly subtle transitions, or not using transitions at all. To apply a transition:
You can use the Apply To All command in the Timing group to apply the same transition to all slides in your presentation. Keep in mind that this will modify any other transitions you've applied. Try applying a few different types of transitions to various slides in your presentation. You may find that some transitions work better than others, depending on the content of your slides. To preview a transition:You can preview the transition for a selected slide at any time using either of these two methods:
Modifying transitionsTo modify the transition effect:You can quickly customize the look of a transition by changing its direction.
Some transitions do not allow you to modify the direction. To modify the transition duration:
To add sound:
Sounds are best used in moderation. Applying a sound between every slide could become overwhelming or even annoying to an audience when presenting your slide show. To remove a transition:
To remove transitions from all slides, apply the None transition to a slide, then click the Apply to All command. Advancing slidesNormally, in Slide Show view you would advance to the next slide by clicking your mouse or by pressing the spacebar or arrow keys on your keyboard. The Advance Slides setting in the Timing group allows the presentation to advance on its own and display each slide for a specific amount of time. This feature is especially useful for unattended presentations, such as those at a trade show booth. To advance slides automatically:
If you need to advance to the next slide before an automatic transition, you can always click the mouse or press the spacebar to advance the slides as normal. Challenge!
