In the following tutorials, learn how to apply animation to charts, and also explore the different Chart Animation options available in various versions of PowerPoint:

After you add animation to a selected slide object, you typically set an animation event. Another animation property you can set thereafter is the speed of the animation. Every animation you add within PowerPoint has a fixed, default speed. This speed essentially is a duration shown in seconds or part thereof and differs from animation to animation.

To learn more, choose your version of PowerPoint. If we do not have a tutorial for your version of PowerPoint, explore the version closest to the one you use.
