The animation effect is as follows
– There is a word written on the slide
– A horizontal line moves over the text
– The written words disappear and the new word appears in line with the movement of the horizontal line.

To create the effect we will use the following PowerPoint tools.

– Add a textbox from auto shapes. Add the text you want to be hidden in the animation.
– Change the font to a thick font like Arial Black.
– Increase the font size.
– Duplicate the text box and add the word that needs to be revealed
– Add Rectangle Rounded Rounded Corner shape
– Click on the Yellow handle of the rectangle and increase the curvature
– Adjust the length of the rounded rectangle so it is long enough to the word
– Add another rectangle big enough to hide the word to be hidden completely.
– Change the Fill color of the newly added rectangle to White. Remove any outline.
– Group the rectangle and Rounded rectangle shapes together
– Add Split animation ( Vertical Out) to the grouped shape
– Add Motion Path Animation ( Down Line Curve) to the grouped shape
– Adjust the amount of motion path animation so it just covers the word to be hidden
– Add Exit animation to the word that is to be hidden
– Now the Rounded Rectangle needs to move back up.
– So add Motion Path animation ( Up) to the grouped shape with the rounded rectangle
– Add Exit animation ( Split) to the grouped shape
– Place the word to be revealed right on top of the word to the hidden
– Bring the grouped shape to Front.
