You can record a narration before you run a presentation, or you can record it during the presentation and include audience comments. If you do not want narration throughout your entire presentation, you can record separate sounds or comments on selected slides or objects. For more details, see Record a slide show with narration and slide timings.

Browsed at a kiosk (full screen) Loops your slide show until the person watching presses Esc. (Selecting this option automatically selects the Loop continuously until 'Esc' check box and causes your slide show to run in a loop.)

If you want a slide show to run automatically at a kiosk, you can control when and how the slides advance. To do this, you can apply the same transition to all slides in the presentation and set the transition to automatically advance after a certain time interval.

Advance Slide sets the transition timing by specifying how long a slide stays in view before the transition to the next slide begins. If no timing is selected, slides advance when you click the mouse.

To make the slide advance automatically, select the After check box, and then enter the number of minutes or seconds that you want. The timer starts when the final animation or other effect on the slide finishes.

To enable both the mouse and automatic advance, select both the On Mouse Click check box and the After check box. Then, at After, enter the number of minutes or seconds that you want. The slide will advance automatically, but you can advance it more quickly by clicking the mouse.

The timer automatically starts when you enter Presenter View. However, you can pause and then restart the timer if you need to stop to type notes for the current slide or take a break. See the following table for details.

Rehearsed slide timings aren't turned on by default. If you want to use the timings as you present, you can turn the timing on before you play the slide show. On the Slide Show tab, in Set Up, select the Use Timings check box.

On the left side of the notes pane, you can see any speaker notes that you entered for the current slide when you created the presentation. However, you can also type additional notes while you rehearse.

If you previously recorded your presentation and saved the slide timings, the slides may be set to automatically advance according to the saved timings when you play the slide show. If you don't want to use the timings as you present, you can turn them off.

I'm using PowerPoint 2007 and there is a setting that supposedly does exactly this (Advance Slide Automatically After: ) but it does not work at all. On every slide, I type 15 into the textbox and it shows 00:15. But when I click Slide Show / From Beginning or Slide Show / From Current Slide it absolutely does not work.

ED2: OK, some people had the same problem with powerpoint before. Here's one solution. It's for PPT2003, but from what I've gathered "this is not a bug, it's a feature" :) So chances are that it's the same in next versions.

I had this same problem, and every answer returned by google has something to do with music. My slide show has NO music, only simple fade transitions and a 5 second delay (auto advance) applied to all slides in the standard way. I kept digging, because there were NO answers on line about this.

If you've ever seen a PowerPoint presentation that had special effects between each slide, you've seen slide transitions. 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.

Normally, 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.

Wow, this was great. I am just starting my first storyline file from an import, and I deleted the trigger that generated advance slide when timeline ends but it still wouldn't stop. This is what I needed to do as well. Never noticed this existed before. :) Thanks for old posts!

While there's not a way to change the default, you can easily change this by selecting all your slides in story view (select one and press CTRL+A) and then adjust the properties within the bottom right-hand corner window to advance slide By user.

PowerPoint entrance animation set up with "Start: With Previous" starts right when a new slide is advanced. However, if you set up an exit animation in the same way, it doesn't start with a slide ending sequence. Instead, the "Start: On Click" trigger needs to be used and after your exit animation is over you still need one extra click just to advance to the next slide.

Workarounds to this are obvious: create a duplicate slide, make your ending animations from the original slide being your starting animations on the duplicate slide and let them be followed with whatever you want or create a transition slide with those ending animations only and set up "Change Advance slide -> Automatically after -> [the time it takes your animations to finish]".

These workarounds will make it work for your audience, visually. However, it has an impact on slide numbers you might need to adjust accordingly and/or duplicate content changes. If you are the only one creating and using your presentation, this might be just fine. But if you are creating a presentation in collaborative mode with three other people and don't even know who will be the presenter at the end, you can mess things up.

Let's be specific: most of my slides have 0.2s fly in entrance animation applied to blocks of content coming from right, bottom or left. Advancing to the next slide I want them to fly out in another 0.2s exit animation being followed by new slide 0.2s fly in entrance animation of the new blocks. The swapping of the blocks should be triggered while advancing to the next slide, as usually.
As mentioned, I'm not able to achieve this without one extra click between the slides.

I wrote a VBA script that should start together with an exit animation and will auto advance a slide after 0.3s when the exit animation is over. That way I should get rid of those extra clicks which are needed right now.

It works well when binded on a box, button or another object. But I can't make it run on a single click (anywhere on the slide) so that it could start together with the exit animation onclick trigger. Creating a big transparent rectangular shape over the whole slide and binding the macro on it doesn't help either. By clicking it you only get the macro running, exit animation is not triggered.
Anyway, I don't want to bind the macro to any other workaround object but the slide itself.

Anyone knows how to trigger a PowerPoint VBA script on slide onclick event?
Anyone knows a secret setting that will make the exit animation work as expected i.e. animating right before exiting a slide while transitioning to the next one?
Anyone knows how to beat this dragon?

You could also set the TRANSITIONS (tab) -> Advance Slide After 00:00:00 seconds. You will need to set the SLIDESHOW (tab) to Use (Rehearsal) Timings. This will automatically advance the slide after the last animation action. You could, of course give it some seconds to wait, but it sounds like you just want to advance the slide.

Theire is a code havy workaroundYou do that using the duplicate methode. However you duplicate using vba not manualy.You can use the OnSlideShowPageChangeTest if the slide is one that need to be duplicated using a naming scheme of your choice. Then duplicate the slide. Then set the trasition effect to non and make it transition after 0 sec duration. Then remove all animations and add the exit animations desired.Then you use the SlideShowEnd event to delete all the duplicate slides.Note that you can use the SlideShowBegin to duplicate all the slides at once however duplicating a slide is not a fast tasck. So if you have a lot of havy slides to duplicate strating you presentation may take few seconds.Sorry for not providing the code since it needs several lines.For naming the slides you use also a macro.

For increased flexibility, PowerPoint also allows you to time your slides. You can use PowerPoint slide timing on any slide you desire, and you will see your slides automatically advance at the set time.

PowerPoint slide timing is vital for any presenter who wants to deliver a perfect presentation. If you discover that the timing of your slides needs to be adjusted while rehearsing your presentation, you don't have to start over. You can adjust the timing of your slides by following some simple steps.

As its name suggests, manual control requires you to take a hands-on approach to your presentation. You will have to switch between slides from your computer or with a presentation clicker for PowerPoint. The latter works just like a remote control. Use manual control when you want to have complete control over your slides.

As for automatic timing, it allows you to deliver your presentation hands-free. In other words, you won't have to bother about controls. All you have to do is press play. The program will display your slides one after according to the set time.

If you think automatic timing is correct, the following line of action is to decide how much time to set. Will a 10-second window be sufficient for the viewing of each slide? What about 15? That's for you to decide.
