DRAW ARROWS Arrows are good for marking the movement of your presentation, show the path of things and connect frames and text. They are very easy to manipulate as you will see in the following videoBack to lessons 20. EDIT THE PATH OF YOUR PRESENTATION The path is the movement that your presentation will follow, it allows you to put the things that go first and the succession of the presentation. You can put arrows like we saw in the last lesson to make your path more predictable and logical. Please watch the following video to learn how to use paths. The path can be followed using the arrow keys. You can also add fade animations to text and elements inside of your frames during the path.Back to lessons 21. EDIT THE PATH OF YOUR PRESENTATION 22.
