Advancing slide timing in PowerPoint is a straightforward process. It can be done manually for each slide, or you can use the Rehearse Timings feature to set timings for the entire presentation. To do this manually, follow the steps below:

1. Open your PowerPoint presentation and go to the slide where you want to adjust the timing.
2. Click on the “Transitions” tab in the PowerPoint tool bar.
3. In the “Timing” group, under “Advance Slide”, check the box next to “After” and enter the number of seconds you want the slide to stay on the screen.
4. Repeat this process for each slide you want to adjust. Remember, the changes you make will only apply to the slide you’re currently working on.

If you want to set timings for the whole presentation, use the Rehearse Timings feature:

1. Click on the “Slide Show” tab in the PowerPoint toolbar.
2. Click on “Rehearse Timings” in the “Set Up” group. The Rehearse Timings toolbar will appear, and the slide show will start automatically.
3. Advance through your presentation as you normally would. PowerPoint will record the amount of time you spend on each slide.
4. When you’ve finished, click “Yes” to save the new slide timings. These timings will be used the next time you present.

Remember, it’s important to rehearse your presentation to make sure the timings work well with your speech and the flow of your presentation.
