I'm trying to use Powerpoint on my laptop to scroll text like a teleprompter, as explained in this video:

"Go to the "Animations" tab in PowerPoint and click the "Lines" icon. Click on the "Effect Options" icon, then select "Up" and set the "Sequence" to "As One Object." Press the "F5" key on your keyboard to play the presentation, which begins scrolling the text immediately."

When I go to the "Animations" tab, however, there is no "Lines" tab. I'm using 2019 Office Home & Student. Does this version not have this feature? Is there a way I can scroll using my version?
