highlight current bullet in keynote

Hi everyone :)


I was wondering if it is possible to move through a bullet list when the current bullet is highlighted and the rest are dimmed

Thank you!

This is a different situation. To do this, you will need to set this up manually:


  • on a new slide, add a text box and create a bulleted list, with all the text coloured grey
  • duplicate the text box as many times as you have bullet points
  • in the second text box colour the first bullet text in your highlight colour
  • repeat the process for the other text boxes:




  • place each text box exactly on top of the first slide:




  • you will now have a series of layers of text one on top of each other
  • add a Build IN effect to all the text boxes so they animate on to the slide one after the other, in the correct order
