How To Add Rolling Credits In PowerPoint

  1. Note that your cursor turns into an arrow and after you click, a crosshair.
  2. Click and drag your cursor to draw the text box.
  3. Credits are typically aligned in the center of your page or screen, so we will set ours up in the same manner. On the Home tab, in the Paragraph Group, select Center. This will place your cursor in the center of your text box.
