The before and after shapes should have roughly the same number of edit points. If the shape you're morphing has edit points on it: PowerPoint can't geometrically morph a shape that has more than one hole in it. Morph expects a 1:1 mapping between objects, so for best results, a specific !!Name should be unique on a slide. Morph won't match a "!!" object with a non-"!!" object. If Morph sees two objects of the same type with the same name, starting with !!, across two slides, it'll morph one object to the other in the transition from one slide to the next. Rules Morph follows with the !! naming scheme One exception is charts: they don't morph, they cross-fade.Ĭontinue to use object names that don't start with !! and know that it won't change the way Morph treats them. Press Enter to preserve the new name you've typed.įorce different shapes (such as a circle and a square) to morph.įorce two instances of the same shape-but with different text in each- to morph.įorce any two objects of the same type to morph (table/table, SmartArt/SmartArt). Type !! followed by whatever else you want to include in the name, such as !!ShapeForMorph.
Most default names consist of a descriptive word and a numeral, such as Title 1. It shows a list of all the objects on the current slide. The Selection Pane opens on the right side. Click it a second time to make the name editable. (On macOS) On the Home tab, in the Arrange group, click Selection Pane.Ĭlick a name in the list to select the object. (On Windows) On the Home tab, in the Editing group, click Select > Selection Pane. To rename objects by using the Selection Pane Then, by assigning a Morph transition to Slide 8, the circle will morph into the square in the transition from one slide to the next. Use the Selection pane, as described in the next section, to change an object's name.įor example, you can put a circle named !!Shape1 on Slide 7 and a square named !!Shape1 on Slide 8. The naming scheme is simply to begin an object name with !! (two exclamation points) and to assign the same custom name to the two objects. Our custom naming scheme lets you match two objects on successive slides and force one to morph into the other.
Morph now gives you more control over which objects do and don't morph. To learn the basics of applying the Morph transition, be sure to read Using the Morph transition in PowerPoint. This article describes advanced things you can do with Morph.
