Hey everyone,

PPT 2003

I set up custom animation to DIM the text after animating, so each bullet
will turn gray when I display the next one. How do I RE-display that dimmed
text when I'm done? In other words, when I reach the end of the slide, I
want all of the bullet points to turn black again so people can see them and
ask questions on them. I tried adding an "emphasis" effect that changes the
font color back to black, but it doesn't work - the text stays gray.

So I'm hoping someone has a way. Thanks so much!

Joe

If you use an emphasis animation to create the "Dimmed" text you would be
able to use another empahsis to reset it. Get back if that makes no sense!

What John said or in the emphasis animation that you've setup set the dim
color to black. That would work too.
