I'm sorry - again, timing issue on one slide - does not work

[Guest]

I have one slide that was added at the END of a presentation AFTER the timing was custom timed through "rehearsal". I tried, as was suggested from this board, to go through "slide transition" and "advance" to change the timing - I type in the new time, but it does not stay changed...when I "play" the slide, it's still the same no matter how many seconds I type in.

One note - it's an animated slide - with a photo and then a text box "fading" in. As soon as the animation is finished, the slide just cuts off! Looks awful - especially for the last slide. The presentation has come together okay - and then the end is just SO abrupt. PLEASE help Thank you SO much.

How about adding another slide at the end to make it look the way you want?

That's a possibility - will I have problems with it? The fact that the others were all done as a "whole" show, customed timed does not present a problem? I did not try this, but will tonight. Thank you.

I don't know, but you don't have anything to lose by trying.
