How-to Guide

1. Preview Effect

Entry path: Animation tab → Preview Effect

1. Click the Animation tab at the top of the window.
2. Find and click Preview Effect.
3. The animations on the current slide will play in sequence.

Success Criteria

• Interface result: The animations on the current slide start playing in the configured order.
• What you can do next: You can continue adjusting animation effects, order, or object settings.

Tips While Using

• Common mistake: If the current slide has no animation applied, you may not see any visible change after clicking the button.
• Environment note: This action works for the current slide, so open the slide that contains the animated objects first.

2. Auto Preview

Entry path: Animation tab → drop-down button next to Preview Effect → Auto Preview

1. Click the Animation tab at the top of the window.
2. Find and click the drop-down button next to Preview Effect.
3. Select or clear Auto Preview.
4. When selected, WPS will automatically preview the effect when you set or change an object's animation. When cleared, it will not preview automatically.

Success Criteria

• Interface result: When Auto Preview is selected, changing an animation plays the current effect automatically. When it is cleared, automatic playback stops.
• What you can do next: You can continue adjusting multiple object animations without leaving the editing view.

Tips While Using

• Common mistake: If you only change non-animation content, Auto Preview will not be triggered.
• Environment note: Auto Preview is mainly used for immediate checking when you set or replace animation effects.
