Adding Transitions To A Show; Using The Transition Dialogs - ScanSoft Kai’s Power SHOW User Manual

Adding Transitions to a
Show
Transition effects are added to frames
using the In or Out Transition dialogs.
These dialogs provide access to over 60
real-time transitions available in SHOW.
Your choice of transition depends on what
type of effect you're trying to create.
That's why there are two transition
windows—so you can see how the
transitions you apply affect the image as it
appears, and as it disappears.
If you're creating a business presentation,
the transitions should be consistent, and
limited to a few different effects. If you're
creating a photo show for your family, you
might want to add many different
transitions to go with each type of picture
you're displaying.

Using the Transition Dialogs

The Transition dialogs let you apply a
transition to a frame. The selected
transition appears in the Transition
Preview window.
You can move through the entire show
while you're in this dialog using the arrow
keys on your keyboard. This makes it
possible to add transition effects to each
of the frames in your show without ever
having to exit the dialog.
When you select a transition, it's
automatically applied to the frame. You
don't have to click an OK button, or any
other button, to apply the transition. This
makes it even easier to apply transitions.
You can apply a transition effect to each of
the frames in your presentation just by
pressing the arrow keys and clicking
transitions. When complete, click the
Done button to exit the dialog.
Remember that frame 1's Out
Transition is frame 2's In Transition.
You need only select all In or all Out
transitions to account for all necessary
transitions in a show.
