What key to press to jump to the next slide right away?

Hello Everyone,

When the next slide contains either complicated graphs or many "bullet
points" => when I press the "->" or the "down arrow", or "page down" keys on
the keyboard I don't jump to the next slide. What happens is that Power
Point only adds one "bullet point", or one part of the graph. This is very
annoying - sometimes I have to press the "->" key more than a dozen times to
display the entire slide. What settings must I change to be able to press
one keyboard key and immediately jump to the [entire] next slide?

Thank you for your help,


Bill
 
The way that I would handle it is to add an invisible link to Next Slide. I
would probably put it on the Slide Master. I would create a small
rectangle/square and link it to Next Slide. After positioning it in the lower
right corner I would then give it "no fill" and "no line". That gives you a way
to escape from any slide.
 
A couple or three options:

1. You must remove the Custom Animations so when the slide comes up
everything is on it
2. You can type the slide number and ENTER to bypass the animations and go
directly to that slide
3. You could also have an Action Button (right arrow) that takes you to the
next slide. Make sure it is not animated on the slide, therefore it can be
used to jump to the next slide as soon as the slide appears. These buttons
are under the "AutoShapes" icon on the Drawing Toolbar. While in design
mode, you can create one button, select it, press CTRL+C to copy it, and
paste it on each subsequent slide by pressing CTRL+V.
