Default Bullet points appearing one-by-one

I want my bullet points to appear one-by-one on my click. I am able to do
that easily for my level 1 bullets, but I cannot seem to do it with the
second level bullets unless I highlight and set the animation for each bullet
separately. I'm sure there is a way to do this all at once.

Default Bullet points appearing one-by-one

PowerPoint 2007

Try this:-

1. Go to the slide where your bullet points are.

2. Click somewhere in the bullet point list.

3. Animations tab / Animations group / Custom Animation.

The Custom Animation Task Pane should now be open on the right hand side of
the window.

4. Click Add Effect / Entrance / 3. Checkerboard / now set the Start: field
to On Click.

5. To test that it works:-

Slide Show / Start Slide Show group / From Current Slide

You should now find that your bullet points only come in on mouse click.

If my comments have helped please hit Yes.

Thanks.

Hi Rick

Go to the custom Animation pane and double cleck (or use the dropdown arrow)
to get to Effect Options Text Animation

Now choose "By second level paragraphs"

See if that does what you need
