Build the basic path first
Create a clear beginning-to-end presentation before adding branches. Confirm that normal next and previous navigation works and that every slide has a meaningful role.Add fragment reveals
Fragments reveal content within a slide. Use them to control attention, not to make every bullet animate separately. Check the hold time when a slideshow may also be played or rendered automatically.Add branches and hotspots
Use branches when the viewer genuinely needs a different path. Add hotspots to the visible object that represents the choice, then test every destination and return path. Keep a way forward from every branch. A beautiful slide that traps the viewer is still broken navigation. Use the/slideshow agent workflow when you want help planning and building the full deck.
