Motion paths with custom animations included
Hi,
I have a figure which I intend to have move up the slide over 4 separate motion paths (as the figure is taller than the slide). Between each motion path I would like to have a series of custom animations appear to highlight various parts of the figure (arrows etc.). However, how do I know where to draw these custom animations to position them correctly? I can't seem to figure out how to look at the motion path frame by frame in the normal slide view so that I can add custom animations to the right spot. Any ideas are most appreciated. Thanks, Chris |

Motion paths with custom animations included
Trial and error, my friend. PowerPoint lacks a true timeline, as you'll find
in a NLE like Premiere, so there is no way to know exactly where elements will be on a slide at a moment in time. I find it ironic that the Animation task pane has a setting called Advanced Timeline, which is nothing more than a little rectangle representing the speed and duration of an object's movement.

Chris,
If you need to know only the final resting positions for the motion paths then you can try this free add-in http://skp.mvps.org/mptools.htm -- Regards, Shyam Pillai Handout Wizard: http://skp.mvps.org/how. PowerPoint 2010 (32-bit/64-bit) versions supported. "Chris" wrote in message ...
