Action buttons are built-in interactive buttons in presentation software like PowerPoint that, when clicked or hovered over during a slide show, can perform a specified action. These actions can include navigating to another slide, linking to a web page or file, running a program, or playing a sound, enhancing the interactivity of a presentation.
- Briefly describe any 3 settings you do while setting up a slide show.
Three settings you can adjust when setting up a slide show are:
Show Type: You can choose how the slide show will be presented (e.g., “Presented by a speaker (full screen)”, “Browsed by an individual (window)”, or “Browsed at a kiosk (full screen)”).
Show Options (Looping): You can set the presentation to “Loop continuously until ‘Esc'” if you want it to repeat automatically, which is useful for unattended displays like kiosks.
Advance Slides: You can choose whether to advance slides “Manually” (requiring clicks or key presses) or “Using timings, if present” (automatically advancing based on rehearsed or set timings).
