Cropping as animation effect

[Laila]

Does anyone know how to make the cropping action as an animation effect?

Thanks

Laila,

I don't believe this is possible.

However, you could show 2 'states' of your image.

State 1 - not cropped
State 2 - cropped

By showing any kind of page transition, this would give the effect of a
cropping animation effect

If you have a solid back ground you could:

Use the rectangle draw tool to wipe in as an animation, making it the same
color as the background. This way it will appear to be cropping.

Assuming your photo is square or rectangular, use the draw tool on all 4
sides.
1. on right side, set animation to wipe from right
2. on bottom, set animation to wipe from bottom
3. on left side, set animation to wipe from left
4. on top, set animation to wipe from top

Set the time so that all sides animate with previous.

PowerPoint Responsibly,
