A quick note on the Morph feature
To create Morph transitions, you need PowerPoint for the web, PowerPoint 2019 or PowerPoint for Microsoft 365. Other versions of PowerPoint can play Morph transitions but can't create them.

you've done all the work and it now works beautifully and you are proud of yourself.
one day later, manager: now make the circles a little bit smaller, and maybe change the color on the left one.
now you need to update many things from the scratch, that's the problem with having something this sophisticated in work environments.

one week later, let's put in the new numbers, then when realizing it's hand-moved, they would just say: "your chart is broken", instead of appreciating anything that you did, sometimes they just prove that they don't deserve any!

oh my god that was beautiful. One of the best learnings I have had! Thank you

This looks great! I love the trick with the "ruler" blocks on the left side to get the percentages to snap in place. Awesome! 😄

[CreativePowerPointEveryday]

Very interesting idea. The custom guide is very smart. And your color palette looks gorgeous on those graphs.

Thank you for sharing! Your tutorial is very useful. I actually learned more than just to animate the bar chart 😁

This is beyond awesome. Really really enjoyed it. Will watch all of your other videos as well.

Thanks so much! My transition wasn't working as well to start, until I realized I need to group the objects prior to duplicating the slide and morphing... if yours isnt working make sure you double check that!

Hey Dale, so I'm trying to add a 3rd slide and move some of the bars down and others up and change the percentage number. However when I change the number and click the morph button, the bars I made changes to simplify fade into place and not morph. Would you happen to know why? And how I can fix it. Thanks

Great and easy to follow tutorial. I love it will be using this in my presentations.

I liked this video! Pretty easy and simple instructions. You've earned a new subscriber. 😊

Great tut! Is there any way to change the font color in a negative bar graph? The main bar chart font color is white, but one the categories is showing negative and you can't see the white number. Thanks!

Amazing content, Thanks
Is it also possible to design a chart from scratch and connect it to Excel, so every time you change the Excel file, get a chart accordingly (with or without animation)

hi, i did same your presentation but i have problem with effect (in the middle "2019" doesnt move like 2017 to 2021)2019 move like flash ! i dont know why ? but 2017 to 2021 move like your video, thank you

[meshobhit]

Awesome. But when I edited your slide, the animation didn't work. what can be the reason?

[gigiho]

i wouder when i changge the number in the circle and it not working

[omarruder]

Hey man, nice video! I was wondering something though, how can I add a shadow to the circles, even though they're covered by a mask. I tried to add a similar (colorless) object, above the mask, with a shadow, but this doesn't work. When I make the object's transparency 0%, the shadow also disappears
