Stop Annotation not working

Oct 27, 2011

Hi,

I'm trying to add the spotlight annotation to my slide but the spotlight stays on the slide for the entire time.  I click on 'Stop Annotation' when I'm done it doesn't seem to be working.  I've tried the other annotations and the same thing keeps happening.

Help please!

Thank you,

Hi Selena,

Depending on whether or not your slide already contains audio, have a look at these tutorials, keeping in mind that Clear All removes any annotations showing on the screen:

Adding Annotations and Recording Audio at the Same time:

Adding Annotations When Your Audio's Already in Place:

Let me know if that helps...

Hi Selena,

First, can you replicate the issue with a completely new presentation?  If not, then your current presentation may be corrupt:

If you continue to have issues even with a new presentation, can you try clicking the Clear All button & then clicking Stop Annotation?
