Incrementally revealed text blurred in slide show
I have PowerPoint 2007 and Windows XP. I have a table on a slide that I want
to have incrementally appear. I use the AnimationsCustom Animation and select Entrance and one of the options. On the regular slide the text is nice and crisp. But on the slide show, when the table is revealed, the text is blurred. How do I get a revealed table to have crisp text? |

Incrementally revealed text blurred in slide show
How are you making the table text appear incrementally??
You will probably see better results if you cover each part of the text with a shape set to no line and the same colour as the table cell and animate this to exit.

Incrementally revealed text blurred in slide show
Thanks, John. I did what I think you suggested (Added a rectangle with no
fill and no border that covered the table and grouped them) but the slide show still blurred the characters in the table. Here is what I do. I have a range in Excel with text and numbers in it and I copy it to the clipboard. When I copy using plain Paste, it appears like it is still in an Excel mode, as I can edit the table, etc. However, PP puts in extra row height on each row and I have to manually adjust each row height to have it looking like it did when it was in Excel. When I animate this, it is not blurred in the slide show. To keep from having to manually adjust the row heights, instead of using plain Paste, I use Paste Special, Picture (Enhanced Metafile) and it looks exactly like it does in Excel. I think it copies it as an object, and it is not editable. It has nice handles for resizing and that I can use either the mouse or arrow keys for moving around. When I animate this, the characters are blurred in the slide show, but not on the slide itself. All animation is done by selecting the item and clicking AnimationsCustom AnimationAdd EffectEntrance and choosing Appear. I want it to look like it does in Excel but without having to manually adjust each row height. By the way the same thing happens with a chart (e.g. pie chart). When I copy it with plain Paste, the characters (e.g. legend) are not blurred, but when I copy it with Paste Special, Picture (Enhance Metafile) the characters are blurred. Is there any way to solve my problem without having all the extra work of adjusting the row heights? Thanks. "John Wilson" wrote: How are you making the table text appear incrementally??
