Remove a transition
- Click the slide with the transition you want to remove. Then on the Transitions tab, in the Transitions gallery, click None.
Remember that a transition determines how a slide enters, and how the previous slide exits. So if (for example) you don’t want slide 2 to have an exit effect, you must remove the transition from slide 3.
