How would I go about making an animation on Powerpoint where it looks like a crayon is writing words?

1 Answer

Answer :

I’m not sure you could do this within Powerpoint. Best to create an animated movie and then import it into your presentation. Or if you want it to be user controlled, there is probably a stock cursor replacement available somewhere online.
