4. Click the target object that should receive the same animation effect.
5. Preview the slide to confirm that the target object now uses the copied animation.

Success Criteria

• Interface result: The target object shows the same animation effect as the source object.
• Next action available: You can continue applying animations to other objects or switch to slideshow preview.

Tips While Using
