However, for this one, you’ll also need to adjust when the animation starts. As mentioned earlier, the max duration you can set is 59 seconds.Īfter you set the first animation, select the next shape, give it an animation, and then set the duration. Exit animations are red.Īfter you select the animation, set the duration of the animation in the Timing group.
To add an animation, click the shape to select it, go to the “Navigations” tab, and then choose an exit animation. You’ll need to add the animation in the order you want each animation to disappear. Next, add an exit animation to each shape. If you want the duration of the timer to be 5 minutes, then you can add 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1 in the boxes and set each animation duration to 59 seconds. The numbers can represent minutes or seconds. Once you’ve got the shapes set, add a number to them by double-clicking the shape and typing the number. In this example, we’ll insert five rectangles with rounded edges. You can insert as many or as few shapes as necessary. Note that the longest duration you can set for a single animation is 59 seconds.įirst, open the PowerPoint presentation you’d like to add the timer to, and then insert the shapes of your choice (Insert > Shape). You can use one shape if you want, but if you use multiple shapes for the timer, you’ll need to set each animation to begin in order once the last animation is finished. You can create a custom countdown timer in PowerPoint by adding to on-screen shapes an exit animation with a set time to complete the animation.
