slide repeats itself in powerpoint

  • Thread starter Thread starter Guest

This is not a normal behavior.

First, I would check that the animations are not duplicated.
Second, I would check that the slide was not copied and inserted back into
the presentation
Third, I would check there is no VBA code or Macro causing this behavior.

Just to make sure I am assuming correctly.

The slide repeats itself (showing the full slide with animation) while in
show mode, not just redrawing itself over and over in edit mode correct?

-- The initial slide has text; it reappears as the next slide without text. Animation is the same for each slide, as is the timing.
 
Several things could lead to this behavior.

Master Slide:
What animations, text and objects are on the master slide? An animation on
the master slide will usually precede the animations for the slide objects
and not be listed on the slide's animations pane.

Duplicate Objects:
Copy the slide and pull it apart. If the control key is accidentally held
down while an object is moved, it will make a copy of the object(s). If
these have animations, than they will be copied and listed in the animation
pane.

Animations:
If the text has been given an entrance, an exit, and a second entrance
animation, it could mimic the behavior, but this would also show in the
animation pane.

Code:
It could be done via VBA or Macros. If you press Alt + F11 (open the VBE
window) , is there a plus or minus sign next to your presentation name in
the VBA project pane?

I'VE CHECKED EVERYTHING YOU SUGGESTED; NOTHING SEEMS TO GET RID OF THE
DUPLICATION. CAN I SEND THE PRESENTATION TO YOU AND HAVE YOU CHECK IT?

Thank you sir. I really appreciate your efforts. On the way. I believe it's
Slide #15 that repeats.
