Perfect Timing

Wednesday, July 13, 2005

Worried about how long each slide will be up in front of the audience, or wondering how long your slideshow will really take? It may be time to rehearse using Microsoft PowerPoint's Rehearse Timings function. When you're ready to do a run-through of your PowerPoint presentation, pull down the SLIDE SHOW menu and choose REHEARSE TIMINGS. The slideshow will begin automatically, and as you change from slide to slide, PowerPoint will record the time it takes to present each slide, along with the accumulated time. When you're finished, PowerPoint will offer to show all the slides in Slide Sorter mode. This view shows the time, in minutes and seconds, it takes to present each slide.
