Duplicate Animation Suggestion

L

Linda Adams

I've been experimenting with animation and am working on a shape where there
are several animated effects on one slide, all with the same animation but
different timing. Each time, I have to go back through and add the next
animation. It'd be nice to be able to right click on the animation for that
shape and make a duplicate of it. It would save a couple of steps when
creating complex animated effects.

Hi,

What Echo said! Also, many existing animation effects can be reused. Like
inserting an image as a background to an autoshape. Change the picture and
keep the animation.

Please tell us your PowerPoint and Windows
version, whether you are using vba,
whether your dog has fleas, or
anything else relevant.

This is a fairly frequently requested feature.

I know it would be best if MS would include these things, but since they
haven't, you might want to check into these add-ins:

your needs
