Timing Options • Delay: by default 0 seconds – adjust to have more time between animations on timed slides or when Automatically after previous is set • Repeat: by default (none) – best setting for text • Rewind when done playing check box – by default unchecked (Rewind on a text animation makes it disappear.) • Triggers button (more about this one later!) www.maysstuff.com
