What are the steps to create a morph animation in PowerPoint 2013?

Creating a Morph animation in PowerPoint 2013 involves several steps. For PowerPoint 2013, the Morph transition is not built-in, but we’ll use a workaround to achieve a similar effect. Here’s how:

1. Open your PowerPoint presentation and add a new slide. This slide will serve as the starting point for the Morph animation.
2. Add the objects or text that you want to animate onto the new slide.
3. Duplicate the slide you’ve created. You can do this by right-clicking the slide in the slide panel and selecting ‘Duplicate Slide’.
4. On the duplicated slide, move, resize, or edit the objects to reflect the end state of your animation.
5. Now, let’s create the animation effect. On the first slide, select an object, click on the ‘Animations’ tab, select ‘Custom Animation’.
6. In the custom animation panel, click ‘Add Effect’ > ‘Motion Paths’ > ‘Draw Custom Path’.
7. Draw a line from the object to the destination point on the second slide. Repeat this process for each object you wish to animate.
8. Adjust the duration and order of the animations as needed by selecting the animation in the Custom Animation panel and clicking on ‘Speed’ and ‘Reorder’.

And that’s it! You’ve created a Morph-like animation in PowerPoint 2013. Remember, the key is to make sure that the starting and ending points of your animations line up with the positions of the objects on the first and second slides respectively.
