Hello,
Here's what I’m trying to do with PowerPoint.
I have 3 paragraphs of 2 or 3 lines on a slide.
And I would like all the text to appear at once. Then, as I click, the first paragraph appears in bold. Then the second, and finally the third!
Can someone help me?
Thank you in advance

It's very quick to do...
You don't create three text boxes, one is sufficient.
You apply bold, then the color.
Then you "open" the animations in the animation pane, and you move the color animations using the arrows so that they interleave with the bold animations.
As for the normalization, I wouldn't bother: just choose "Fade" with a light gray color for example.

Fluid, that's fine... it also depends on your PC.
Artistic... that's a matter of taste... But I don't find it extraordinary either... We can really do better... I suppose that was imposed on you?
R@bert ???????? why that? :D
No, no, I'm m@rina! and I haven't changed my gender!! :D

No, I didn't know if your name was M@rina R@bert (I know one).
When I say fluidity, it's because the color changes just after the bold. Plus, the color changes, at a minimum, in 0.1 seconds. The bold changes quite abruptly!
Uh no, it's not required. It's just that I have to present a fairly long text to young people in an attractive way! If you have another idea... :p

It's a bit complicated! If I want only one paragraph to stand out, that gives me 6 effects (3 for highlighting + 3 for resetting to normal). And if I want to make the paragraphs bold and in color, I just have 12 effects...
