Have you ever thought of creating a spinning wheel animation in PowerPoint? Well, In this tutorial, we will explain how to create a spinning wheel animation in PowerPoint. Animation is an effect that gives your eyes an illusion of a moving object.
Now that you have added an animation to a slide object, you can control more animation properties like event and speed as we will explain in subsequent tutorial of this series.PowerPoint is known for creating presentations and for the cool animation effects it offers to make your presentation lively to your audience. Learn more in our Re-Order Animations in PowerPoint 2016 for Windows tutorial. You can also change the animation sequence. Remember that any animation added first will play first, and any animations added thereafter will play in the same sequence, as you added them.
If your slide has more than one slide object, you can also add animation effects for all of them using the same process. This action will cause the selected slide object to animate once to preview the animation, as shown in Figure 5, below.įigure 5: Shape animating immediately after animation is added. For this tutorial, we chose the Zoom effect, within the Entrance animation type, as shown highlighted in red within Figure 4, below. Within the Add Animation drop-down gallery, click any of the animation effect thumbnails to apply the animation to the selected slide object. If you cannot see all animations, especially the Motion Path animation types, you can scroll down to see them all.įigure 3: Add Animation drop-down gallery Within this gallery, you'll find four animation types: Entrance, Emphasis, Exit, and Motion Paths. Doing so opens the Add Animation drop-down gallery, as shown in Figure 3, below. Within the Animations tab, click the Add Animation button, as shown highlighted in red within Figure 2, below. Although we are using a shape within this example, the same technique will work to add animation to any slide object within PowerPoint.
