Working with Object Groups

Individual slide elements can be grouped together and treated as a single object. When you use the Group command to group objects, you combine them so you can work with them as though they were a single object. You can flip, rotate, and resize or scale all objects in a group as a single unit.

You can ungroup a group of objects at any time and then regroup them later.

To group elements into an object, do the following:

1Select one or more slide elements in a slide.

2Right-click on any of the elements, and from the right-click menu that appears choose Grouping > Group.

To ungroup object into individual elements, do the following:

1Select an object group.

2Right-click on the group, and from the right-click menu that appears choose Grouping > Ungroup.

Animating Objects on a Slide

Animation presets simplify the use of animations for introducing, looping, and closing objects that appear in a template.

While a slide is playing out, objects on the slide can also have in animation and out animation effects when they appear and are removed from view.

To create animation for individual slide objects:

1Select an object on a slide.

2In the Template Maker region, choose an Animation Type from the In Animation palette.

3If desired, choose an Animation Type from the Out Animation palette.

4For both In and Out animations, you can modify animation properties. In Animation and Out Animation panels have the same properties except the Out Animation panel does not have the option ‘Auto play on slide load.’

Modify animation properties as follows:
