Reverse Path Direction

[Hans W. Hofmann]

Hi,
has any one found a vba equivalent to Reverse Path Direction of a path
animation?

Hans,
You can check the value of the Speed property of the 1st behaviour of the
motion path. +'ve or -'ve value determines the path direction.
?Activepresentation.Slides(1).TimeLine.MainSequence(1).Behaviors(1).Timing.Speed
-1

However, while you can use the above property to determine if the path is
reversed, there is no way to set it to a negative value in the OM since it
will throw an error.
Only way to change the direction programmatically is to rearrange the actual
motion path coordinates.

Hi Shyam,

thank you and excuse me for personal mail - I hit the wrong button...
Curious, the Timing.Speed 0 reverse the path, but an animation speed
of 0 is to boring for the users . What ever?
I have a Sub ReverseCurvePath now. If it is interesting for you let
me know...
