Quick questions on Transitions and animations: N-Level Computer Applications presentations
3short Q&A pairs drawn directly from our worked dot-point answer. For full context and worked exam questions, read the parent dot-point page.
What is applying a transition?Show answer
You select a slide (or all slides), choose a transition such as Fade, and it plays when that slide appears. A subtle transition like Fade looks smooth; a flashy one used on every slide quickly becomes annoying. Applying the same gentle transition to all slides keeps the deck consistent.
What is applying an animation?Show answer
You select an object, choose an animation, and set when it starts. The most useful kinds are entrance animations (the object appears) and you usually set them to start on click, so you control the pace. A classic helpful use is revealing bullet points one at a time: the audience focuses on the current point and does not read ahead.
What are long, slow effects?Show answer
Slow effects waste time. Keep durations short so the talk keeps moving.
