PP 2003. When I select an image in an animation, it moves it

[Luke Williams]

Hi,

I have a slide with many layers of pictures that I animate. It takes me
forever to be able to align anything since whenever I select an image with my
mouse, it moves it either a few pixels up or down. What could be doing this?

Thanks,

L.

If you are on Windows Vista, have a look at:

Yeap, that seems to have worked, thanks!
Is there no save a version in PowerPoint? Because now, I will be redoing the
whole thing again. If I had an earlier saved version, it would go more
quickly!

Thanks,

Glad it helps.
What do you mean by no save a version in ppt?

In Word 2003, you can save a version of the document you are working on.
Under FILE, ther is an option called VERSION where you may save the document
with the same name but Word keep tracks of the version. I thought maybe PP
would have that option also...

Unfortunately, you can't do that in PowerPoint.
