Microsoft PowerPoint is one of the most used software in Microsoft Office for the preparation of presentation slides and for presentations within various occasions. It’s also one of the most powerful and multifunctional software provided for the user to set-up various animations and transitions in their presentation slides. However, it is too difficult for the user to set-up the animations for digital logic circuit as it involves multiple inputs, output, and animations of the logic value changes. This is because the animation of the inputs and output value changes can easily reach hundreds or thousands of combinations. The software developed in this project, specifically several macros in Microsoft PowerPoint software, provided a better solution for the user to create the desired animation easily, conveniently and efficiently. It is a user-friendly program that allows the user to add input buttons, output display and logic equation with coding preloaded for every single shape. The user will able to modify the shape in normal view window and to click and toggle the logic values for inputs and the output logic value will be calculated and displayed automatically in the slide show window.
