Method 1: Use the control insertion method

1. Call up the toolbox. Operation steps: Start PowerPoint, select - View - Toolbar - Control Toolbox from the main menu. As shown in Figure 1

2. Select "Other Controls" in the control toolbox. The Active X controls installed on the computer will be listed, and find the Shockwave Flash Object control. As shown in Figure 2.

3. At this time, the mouse changes to "+" and draws a box in the slide where the flash animation needs to be inserted. As shown in Figure 3.

4. Right-click the mouse in the box and click Properties, as shown in Figure 4, and then the Shockwave Flash Object property setting bar appears, as shown in Figure 5.

5. Double-click "Customize" with the left button. In the pop-up dialog box, in the input field after the video URL (M), fill in the path and file name of the swf file to be inserted. Of course , it is also possible to directly read swf files on the Internet. As shown in Figure 6.

Note: When filling in the video URL, you need to fill in the file suffix .swf. In addition, select "Embed video" to include the flash animation into the ppt file. When copying the ppt, you do not need to copy the animation file. When the ppt is copied or moved to another computer, the flash can still be displayed normally. If "Embed video" is not selected, you need to copy the animation file and ppt file at the same time, and modify the video URL path. Otherwise, a white frame will appear at the animation position and the animation will not display properly. The author recommends selecting "Embed Video". It can run normally even if the flash player is not installed on the computer.

Just save and browse.

Advantages: 1) No need to install flash player; 2) Select "Embed video" in the dialog box shown in Figure 6, then the animation file and ppt file can be combined into one, and they do not need to be copied separately Copy animation files without modifying the path.

Disadvantages: The operation is relatively complicated.

Select the "Slide Show → Watch Show" command, and when you move the mouse over the Flash object, you can demonstrate the Flash animation, and the embedded Flash animation can maintain its function and the button is still valid. Note: When the ppt file inserted into the flash animation using this method is played, the flash player software (Adobe Flash Player) is started to complete the animation playback, so a flash player must be installed on the computer to run normally.

Advantages: The animation file and the ppt file are integrated. When the ppt file is moved or copied, there is no need to move or copy the animation file at the same time, and there is no need to change the path.

Disadvantages: Playback requires a flash player installed on the computer.

Method 3: Use hyperlinks to insert flash animations

1. Start PowerPoint and create a new presentation;

2. Insert a flash animation on the slide page Images or text are used to edit hyperlinks. In this example we insert a circle.

4. Save the file.

Note: There are three points to note when inserting animations using hyperlinks: 1) Changing the name or storage location of the animation file will cause the hyperlink to "cannot open the specified file".

The solution is to copy the animation file together with the file and re-edit the hyperlink. 2) When the ppt is playing, click the hyperlink and the following window will pop up, as shown in Figure 13. The usual method is to click "OK". 3) A flash player must be installed on the computer to play animations normally.

Advantages: Simple operation

Disadvantages: Since ppt and animation files are linked, during the process of copying or moving the ppt file, the animation file must be copied and moved at the same time, and the link must be changed. path. Otherwise, the "Unable to open the specified file" dialog box will appear. In addition, a flash player must be installed on the computer for normal playback.

(1) Play the video directly. This playback method is to insert the prepared video file as a movie file directly into the slide. This method is the simplest and most intuitive method. Use this method. After inserting the video file into the slide using this method, PowerPoint only provides simple [Pause] and [Resume Play] controls, but no other more operation buttons to choose from. Therefore, this method is especially suitable for PowerPoint beginners. The following are the specific steps: 1. Run the PowerPoint program and open the slide that needs to insert a video file. 2. Move the mouse to the menu bar, click the "Insert" option there, and execute the "Insert Movie File" command from the open drop-down menu. 3. In the file selection dialog box that pops up, select the video file prepared in advance and click the [Add] button to insert the video file into the slide. 4. Use the mouse to select the video file and move it to the appropriate position, then directly click the [Play] button to play the video according to the prompts on the screen, or select the automatic play mode. 5. During the playback process, you can move the mouse to the video window and click once to pause the video. If you want to continue playing, just click again with the mouse. (2) Insert a control to play the video. This method is to insert the video file as a control into the slide, and then modify the control properties to achieve the purpose of playing the video. Using this method, there are a variety of operation buttons to choose from, and the playback process can be completely controlled by yourself, which is more convenient and flexible. This method is more suitable for situations where pictures, text, and videos in PowerPoint courseware are on the same page. 1. Run the PowerPoint program and open the slide into which the video file needs to be inserted. 2. Move the mouse to the menu bar, click the "View" option, select "Control Toolbox" from the open drop-down menu, and then select the [Other Controls] button from the lower-level menu. 3. In the control options interface that opens subsequently, select the "Windows Media Player" option, then move the mouse to the editing area of ??PowerPoint and draw a rectangular area of ??appropriate size, and then the area will automatically become Windows Media Player The playback interface (Figure 1).

4. Use the mouse to select the playback interface, then right-click the mouse and select the "Properties" command from the pop-up shortcut menu to open the "Properties" window of the media playback interface. 5. In the "Properties" window, correctly enter the detailed path and file name of the video file that needs to be inserted into the slide in the "File Name" setting item. In this way, when the slideshow is opened, the specified video can be played through the [Play] control button. 6. In order to better organize the inserted video files with the slides, you can also modify the positions of the control bar, playback slider bar and video property bar in the "Properties" setting interface. 7. During the playback process, you can control the video through the [Play], [Stop], [Pause] and [Adjust Volume] buttons in the media player. (3) Insert object to play video This method inserts the video file as an object into the slide. Different from the above two methods, it can freely select the video clip that actually needs to be played and then play it. The implementation steps are: 1. Open the slide where the video file needs to be inserted, click the "Insert/Object" command to open the "Insert Object" dialog box. 2. After selecting the "New" option, select the "Video Clip" option in the corresponding "Object Type" setting bar, and click the [OK] button (Figure 2).

3. PowerPoint automatically switches to the video property setting state, execute the "Insert Clip/Windows Video" command, and insert the prepared video file into the slide. 4. Execute the "Edit/Options" command to open the option setting box, where you can set whether the video needs to be played in a loop or whether to go backwards after playing, etc. Click [OK] to return to the video property setting interface. 5. Click the video [In Point] button and [Out Point] button in the toolbar to reset the starting point and ending point of the video file, so as to select the video clips you want to play. 6. Click the blank area of ??the setting interface with the left mouse button to exit the video setting interface and return to the slide editing state.
