How to animate bullet points to come in one at a time in PowerPoint?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 сер 2024
- How to animate bullet points one at a time is a staple in presentation. Now getting bullet points to come in one at a time helps you focus your presentation. You don't want to have anything that would detract from your presentation but you would like to control your presentation. This way you can talk about the subjects you want to. In PowerPoint 2016 you can still make use of the animation pane.

Just what I needed thank you so much. The finishing touch to my power point presentation for a job application. Thx
Saved me! Thank you! And, thank you for making the video short and sweet. : )
For everyone complaining that they only get the entire blob at once, you have to click on 'Effect Options', then choose 'By paragraph'. You're welcome!
Thanks for your input made me revisit this to see what's change since I recorded this. PowerPoint has been updated so you don't now have to click on the boundary box to animate one at a time. All you have to do is click in the text box that contains the bullet list you want to animate. You can then apply the animation you want just by clicking on the animation at the top.
Nope. Still comes in at once
@@thisismetoday Try ensuring you click on the border timestamp 00:41 ua-cam.com/video/L45YWxcINC0/v-deo.html
@@thisismetoday It does indeed still come in at once. So annoying. I have looked at numerous videos and what they say to do I follow, but instead of each point appearing with a click of the mouse, all still appear at once.
been working on powerpoint for 10 years and didn't know this!!!Thank you!!!!
Really glad it helped you out.
These instructions didn't work for me (on a Mac) but when I applied the animation to each individual bullet, it worked great.
Sorry never owned a Mac 😔. But glad you got it working in the end 👊🏽
Very helpful - well explained!
OMG You just saved me HOURS of work. I 've been creating separate text boxes for every bullet point and lining them up vertically. I thought that was the only way to animate them separately. Now I see there's a By Paragraph option. I rately use animation because of that. So psyched! Thank you.
Wow, I'm really pleased to hear that!!!! Thanks!
Yeah I just spent hours of work and wish I had searched for this video first... Although I had basically given up on staggering my bullet points and was just narrating through them one by one even while all of them displayed on the screen all at once. I'm bummed, but not about to re-record this presentation at 1:40 a.m....
Actually this still did not work for me. I select the "By paragraph" option, and I get a number "1" placed beside each bullet point. So they all shop up at once. Why you do dis Microsoft?
Hi being up all night animating paragraphs is the last thing you want to do. Make sure you've selected the box surrounding the bullets and not the text. Hope it helps, it should work.
@@computertutoring I will check into that! I did manage to get it work on my very last slide and was not sure what I did differently. You have a cool channel, I'm gonna subscribe!
Thank u got it 💖
THANK YOU.
Thank you, great demonstration!
Thanks!
Brilliant!
So glad I took a couple of minutes to record this
Great trick. Thanks
Thanks, just what I needed to know😁
Thats great!
It is not happening like that on my computer. Still the whole box comes up, not one by one
same here.
I like how instead of giving a solution the channel instead just hearts the comment
@@ronanmurray503 Love the comment thanks I'll Heart yours too
Although for it to work you need to hit the edge of the box like Hoccer's wings says in his reply. Select the box - 1 by 1 Highlight text all comes in at once
Thank you its useful for me
Glad to be of help
very helpful
Thanks exactly what i needed!!!
Great to hear!
- Click the *edge* of the box (you have to actually hit the edge of the entier box!), then the animation you want to have, to get animations 1 through [however-many-items-you-have-in-the-list] one by one
- If you want a (bigger/specific) selection of text to come out at once, select the entire text that you want to come out at once, then click the animation you want it to have
Many thanks for your kind help, much appreciated
Thanks! Make sure you check out our latest on Master Slides. 😁 ua-cam.com/video/QiVSIvB1xis/v-deo.html
Brilliant
Thanks a million brother! Valueable content!
Thanks mate!
Nice one brother!
short and sweet!! typing this BEFORE you have said it. :)
Thank you!!!
👍🏽
I can't get this to work for sublists. Like, if my second bullet has a numbered list under it, that whole list will just appear all at once. I have to individually select and animate each numbered item separately. Extremely time-consuming if you have 40-50 slides!
Thanks a lot. It helped me learn.
Thanks for mentioning
Wonderful trick..... saved me a lot of time.... Thank you so much.
Glad it helped 😉
Thanks for your videos.
Glad you like them!
Thank you.
Welcome 😁
after applying the animation I got only one animation the whole list showed up in one animation, not like how it shows up 1 to 6 in the video. Got it fixed by following in the animation pane click the animation => effect option=>smartart animation=> group graphic select one by one . Then I got 6 individual options. and in the effect tab setting after animation to a faded colour helped me show the user what I am speaking about right now.
Thanks for that my friend wow I never thought this would be that popular have definitely made an improvement on my PowerPoint tutorials after this.
Hi, I'm having the same issue. I click the box, I add the animation, but It doesn't separate the text. It all shows up at once. Ananda, I'm looking for the smartart animation, but it's not under effect option. Is it because I'm on a Mac?
OMG lifesaver! Thank you Ananda and Computer Tutoring!
I wish it showed how to control showing each line with a click rather than automatically. That's what I'm having trouble with.
Hope you got this sorted if not watch this space
@@computertutoring what do you mean watch this space? wtf
animation pane click the animation => effect option=>smartart animation=> group graphic=> one by one . Then I got 6 individual options.
@@waleedali9291 He meant here, this comment section, his channel. Not sure why he didn't bother to then come back and reply, but yeah, that's all that meant ;-)
Thank you. Nicely presented. The 'objects' you don't want to click on the frame surrounding the bulleted list are called HANDLES... last I checked.
HOWEVER, what if you want to ONE-AT-A-TIME display TWO different bulleted lists? ( on the same page ). I tried the same process. It doesn't seem to work .. at least not in Windows 365 version of PPT.? ( It just makes all members of the second list the n+1th item).
And... I found a workaround. Create your second/subsequent bulleted list on a SEPARATE page. Animate it as instructed. Then copy and PASTE it onto the page with an existing ( 1....5 ) list. AHHHHH. Yet ANOTHER Microsoft BUG.
Thanks
No problem :-)
How would you bring them in with a click so as I speak and want to proceed to the next bullet I can fade them in one at a time by clicking?
Good Question! You could use a different animation like "Fly" you can then change the direction the bullets fly in. Hope that's what you mean.😁
How to bring one one word on mouse click in power point?
That's what I need help with 🤦🏽♀️
What an odd experience. Followed the torturial yesterday and no problems, then today I could not do them individually by clicking the box, only all bullets at the same time.
Weirdorama! At the moment you just have to click in the Box just don't highlight any bullets and should be able to bring them in one at a time
I don't get 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. I get 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1...anyone?
Make sure you click on the border of the text box with the bullets. Don't highlight them if you highlight they won't come it one at a time and you'll get the 1,1,1,1,1
i follow the steps in the video but all bullets animate together. i think you are missing a step here.
Sorry it didn't work for you step that most people miss is to click the border of the textbox, make sure you don't highlight the text. On later versions of PowerPoint you don't have to do that all you need to do is click in the box with the bullets in. Hope you get it working
@@computertutoring yeah works now. i had to click on animation pane, then Text animation, then Group text: By 1st level paragraphs.
Such a good feeling when it works. Glad you got it working. 👍🏽
Nope still coming in one big hunk ☹️
Sorry to hear it hasn't worked for you. When I train this I find the main reason the bullets are coming in separately are: 1: the text box wasn't selected when the animations were added or 2: The object being animated isn't a text box. It was imported as an image. Maybe this might help.
Nice tutorial but this piano background distracts a lot
Thanks for saying. Now I've changed the way that I do the video and removed the piano. 😉
didn''t work with me. just wasted time watching it
too much bla bla. keep the videos short and sweet broh
Will keep it in mind. We got a TikTok channel now vm.tiktok.com/ZMNDuMJWH/?k=1
not good explanation, it doesn't work.
Sorry it hasn't worked for you. Try clicking in the text box "DO NOT HIGHTLIGHT" then add the animation then Choose one by one from the Effect options drop down list.
Am i in upside down world? I want to click and one bullet at a time appears. This should have 250 thumbs down.
This is what I came here looking for - slide them in, as I'm introducing them - not just pop them in bam bam bam... might have it sorted out though from an earlier commenter.
Hope you got your issue sorted
