Slide Layout
 A powerpoint slide can be in different layouts
 Text
 Content
 Text & Content
 Other
 Viewing Task Pane
 Right click & select
Slide Layout
Slide Design
 Three functions in Slide Design help making
your slides visually appealing & dynamic:
Design Templates
To give ppt a fully designed & professional look quickly
Color Schemes
To edit colors used in the design of slide
Animation Schemes
To apply presets of animation effects on text
 Different combinations yield different moods /
identity
Slide Design Templates
 Give ppt a fully designed & professional look quickly
 Design template for Title page & Slide page
Slide Color Schemes
 Define color scheme in the design of slides
 Different colors for different objects in the slides
Slide Animation Scheme - Elegant
 Animation Schemes
Provides you with many presets of animation effects
on text
Combination of effects for:
Slide Transition;
Title; &
Body
Can be fine-tuned with Custom Animation
Slide Animation Scheme - Pinwheel
 Animation Schemes
Provides you with many presets of animation effects
on text
Combination of effects for:
Slide Transition;
Title; &
Body
Can be fine-tuned with Custom Animation
Slide Animation Scheme - Faded Wipe
 Animation Schemes
Provides you with many presets of animation effects
on text
Combination of effects for:

Body
Can be fine-tuned with Custom Animation
Slide Transition
 Slide Transition provides interesting transition
effects between slides
 Slide Transition and Animation can be used
together to enhance visual effects
 Yet, more animations = better ?
Custom Animation
 Animation Schemes
preset animation effects for text
 Custom Animation
customize animation & define animation for all objects,
including graphics & movies
in custom animation, you define:
Items to have animation
Applied effect (entrance, emphasis, exit & motion path)
Trigger for start (on click, with previous, after previous)
Speed of effects
Order of animation
Custom Animation (2)
Effect enhancements:
 Sound:
Add sound effect or not
 After animation:
Don’t Dim, Dim or Hide
 Animate text:
All at once, by word or
letter
Timing:
 Start:
On click, with previous
or after previous
 Delay:
Time delay (usually used
with after previous)
 Speed:
How fast the effect plays
Text Animation:
 Group Text:
Grouping of text in
different levels
 Automatically after:
Effect start automatically
 In reverse order:
Reverse the sequence
of effects in paragraphs
Adding Navigation (1)
 Use Action Settings to enable navigation to:
A slide in the same ppt file
A specific slide
Last visited slide
A slide in another ppt file
A webpage with URL
Even an executable file

Adding Navigation (2)
 Procedures
Right click on an object &
select Action Settings
Select target of “Hyperlink to”,
eg. Slide…
Select the slide you want &
select OK

Adding Navigation (3)
 Action only works in Slide Show
 Navigation links pages together similar to
web pages

 Note: If you modify sequence of slides / title of a
slide, pls check whether navigation still works

Creating Graphics
 Use graphics
to help
presenting
your ideas
 Or, draw your
own graphics
 You may
search for
available
Clip arts
Creating Graphics
Inserting Clip Art (1)
 Clip Art available from Ms Office & Online
 Select Insert > Picture > Clip Art…
Enter key word to search
Or, Use Clip Organizer to browse
Creating Graphics
Inserting Clip Art (2)
 Avoid using graphics of different styles!
Creating Graphics
Inserting Clip Art (3)
 Search for similar style Clip Art
Creating Graphics
Drawing Graphics (1)
 You can create simple
Graphics in ppt
Use AutoShapes, colors, line
weight & style to draw
Use Group to group similar
objects & Order to define
foreground background
positions
These are vector graphics
which you can re-scale freely

1. Circles with “Fill Effect” color to
simulate 3D objects
2. Ellipse for lower hat portion
3. Draw > Rotate to rotate objects
4. AutoShapes > Lines > Freeform to
draw noise & upper hat portion
5. Order objects in correct sequence
6. Group related objects together
7. Heavy weight curves for branches
8. Dash curve for mouth
Creating Graphics
Drawing Graphics (3)
 Connectors:
Step 1
Step 2
Very good for linking objects
together in flow charts
Update automatically when
linked objects are relocated

Computer visualization
involves many different
stages targeting at different
aspects of simulation
You may not use a single
software to complete a
computer visualization scene
Different computer systems
have different strengths, eg.
modeling, rendering, postprocessing


Constructing an axonometric projection
Draw a circle of any convenient size. Locate OA
& OB by the angle of rotation & angle of tilt
respectively
From B project vertically to cut the horizontal
axes at E
From E draw an arc to cut OA & OC at F & G
Draw horizontal line from B to meet the vertical
axis at B’
Angle of
Draw horizontal lines from F & G to meet the rotation
vertical projections of A & C at A’ & C’.
OA’ OB’ & OC’ will be the locations of the three
axes of the object in axonometric projection.
If OA OB & OC are the natural lengths of the
object, OA’ OB’ & OC’ will be their lengths as
appeared on the drawing.
The length along the axes are foreshortened in
the following ratio:axis OA
OA’/OA
axis OB
OB’/OB
axis OC
OC’/OC
