Microsoft PowerPoint 2001 for Macintosh

This article was previously published under Q271093

SYMPTOMS

When you create a presentation using slide transition effects, and you save your presentation as a movie, slide animations or highlight effects are turned off, even though the Show animations and Show hyperlinks check boxes are selected in the Save As dialog box.

CAUSE

RESOLUTION

On the Slide Show menu, click Slide Transitions.
Select the transition effect that you want, and then click Apply.
On the File menu, click Save As.
In the Format box, select PowerPoint Movie, and then click Options.
Click to clear the Show animations and Show hyperlinks check boxes, and then click OK.
