Inserting a Hyperlink
Inserting a hyperlink
to your presentation can be very useful when wanting to give examples
or to better describe something. Remember that when you insert
a hyperlink, it is not embedded into the presentation; you have
to be sure to keep all of the files in the same folder in order
for it to work properly. Otherwise, when you try to open your
presentation on another computer it may not work.

Motion Paths
Custom Animation in PowerPoint gives
the ability to produce a motion path for your clipart, image, or
text to follow. These motions include anything from simple shapes
like a circle to a more complex motion paths like a heart or a peanut.
If a specific path is not available then you have the capability
of custom designing your own path. You can also use multiple motion
paths simultaneously and/or sequentially.

Emphasis Effects
Emphasis effects can also be added
to objects in PowerPoint, making the objects do anything from grow/shrink
in size to lighten or darken in color. Emphasis effects can be specified
to act on an object on its own or to act simultaneously with entrance,
exit or motion path effects. In addition, numerous Emphasis Effects
can be added to a single object.
