Then, insert that image onto a slide. If you turn an image into a slide and then use that image to make a new slide, you will no longer be able to animate separate objects.

05 of 05 <h2> Make Multiple Slideshows </h2> Consider breaking your presentation into more than one file. Create a hyperlink from the last slide in Show 1 to the first slide in Show 2 and then close Show 1. This approach may be cumbersome when you&#39;re in the middle of the presentation, but it frees up system resources if you only have Show 2 open.

If the whole slideshow is in one file, your RAM is constantly in use retaining the images of previous slides, even though you are many slides forward. By closing off Show 1 you&#39;ll free up these resources.
