Apply Shadow Effects to Shapes

PowerPoint's Shape Effects are used to enhance the look of your shapes, and with PowerPoint 2016 providing a vast repertoire of effects,
you can easily get busy playing with all the options available! To save time, you can apply any of the Preset shape effects. If you
choose to apply individual effects, the time involved may be more, but the results can be distinctive. For example, even with something
as simple as the Shadow effect, there is no dearth of options available.
Working With Slide Numbers

If your presentation has many slides, it will be easy to identify the current slide as long as you have enabled slide numbers on
your slides. In PowerPoint, you have to make these slide numbers visible since they don't show by default.
Advanced Shadow Options

The shadow effect in PowerPoint adds more depth to your selected shape, and you may achieve the perfect shadow effect the very first time
you use PowerPoint's default shadow options. However, you may want that shadow to be a wee bit longer, or just a little less pronounced.
Or maybe you want the shadow to sport a color that's different.
Apply Reflection Effects to Shapes

Apply any of the various effects in PowerPoint, and your shapes may stand out; literally out of the slide! In this series on Shape
Effects in PowerPoint 2016, we have explored several effect types. On this page, you will learn how you can quickly add a convincing
Reflection effect to a shape.
Advanced Reflection Options

The Reflection effects that PowerPoint provides can be applied with a single click, and can indeed do wonders for your shapes. However,
if you get too carried away by the swanky looking reflections, you may end up distracting your audiences. Most of PowerPoint's reflection
presets that you learned to apply in our Reflection Effects for Shapes in PowerPoint 2016 tutorial are attractive, yet somewhat
distracting. Still, you can tone down the effect a little. Or if you want, you can let your creativity work and enhance the reflection
effect!
