2. Apply the animation effect you want from the available categories: Entrance, Emphasis, Exit, or Path.  
   

• Choose an Entrance effect to control how you want the chart to enter the slide. 
  
• Choose an Emphasis effect to draw special attention to your chart elements by animating them within the slide. 
  
• Choose an Exit effect to control how you want the chart to leave the slide. 
  
• Choose Path effect to choose from predefined motion paths or to create custom paths for the chart.
  
  
  
   The chosen effect will apply to the text and will be indicated by an Animation Number in the Animate pane. 

1. Click the Animate drop-down list and choose the type of chart animation you want to apply based on whether you want to animate the chart by series, categories, or by each individual elements.
   
   There are five types of chart animations: 

• Choosing As a Single Object will animate the entire plot area/whole chart as one object at once. This animation will set your chart to curvy float into the slide as one unit and the chosen chart effect will be indicated with Animation Number "1".
  
  
  
  
• Choosing Each Series will animate all chart series one by one. The term Series refers to the legends in the chart. This animation will set Each Series (2014-15, 2015-16, and 2016-17) in the chart that is oriented vertically to float into the slide one at a time. The chosen chart effect  will label each series in the chart with a different number such as "Series 1",  "Series 2", and "Series 3" along with the background animation effect.
  
  
  
  
• Choosing Each Category animates all chart category one by one. This animation will set Each Category (Hyundai, Toyota, Honda, Ford) in the chart to float into the slide one at a time. The chosen effect will label each  category in the chart with a different number such as "Category 1", "Category 2",  and "Category 3" along with the background effect.
  
  
  
  
• Choosing Each Element in Series animates each individual element/item in series sequentially. This animation will set each element in the series corresponding to the category  to float into the slide sequentially one after the other followed by the next  series/legend, and so on until all series have been animated in the chart. As per the chart, the 2014-15 (Series) appears first for the brand Hyundai, next Toyota, Honda and then Ford followed by 2015-16 (Series) for the brand of Hyundai, Toyota,  Honda and Ford and so on. 
  
  
   
  
• Choosing Each Element in Category animates each individual element in category sequentially. This animation will set each series element corresponding to the category (Hyundai, Toyota, Honda, and Ford ) to display/float sequentially into the chart before  going on to the next category and follows until the last category in the chart. As  per the chart, the 2014-15(Series) appears first, the 2015-16 next,  then 2016-17 and the 2016-17  last for the brand of Hyundai followed by Toyota Category and so on.
