Map completed animations to next pg

[Scott.Thomas]

I want to be able to start a new slide and have the
objects from the previous slide, appear on the new slide,
where they completed their motion path on the previous
slide.

TIA.

If you are only looking for a image of the objects in their completed
locations, then use a simple screen capture, and insert the picture.
Simple, non-time intensive solution.

If you are trying to keep the objects as objects, then I do not know of any
easy and exact way. I have, once when desperate, used a dry erase markers
on my computer screen to map object locations, so I feel your pain.

Why not the best of both worlds ... pop a screen shot, make a dupe of the
slide, paste the screenshot into it and send it to back. You now have
something you can "trace" over as you move the shapes into position.

Hey, I like that idea. I like it a lot. (scribble....scribble....jots it
in his 'gotta remember' tips)

Temp templates. Sounds like a desert ... or a cat food. Either way sounds
like it will smell better than magic marker. (vbg)

For various animation sequences this is something I actually do quite often,
although usually on the same slide (ie. motion path to new location, fade
out, and at same time have duplicate object appear in the ending position so
it can have a new animation applied to it). Here is my process (which,
needles to say, can be tedious):

- Animate first object with motion path.
- A motion path's end point (red arrow) is the center of the object.
- Move duplicate object to have center (best guess) aligned over the motion
path's end point.
- Send the second object to back (so moving object moves ON TOP of it).
- NOW add a small rectangle to the slide, anywhere out of the way, and apply
an emphasis animation such as COLOR BLEND and set its timing to SLOW.
- Now when I preview the slide the object moves on top of the 2nd one and
the COLOR BLEND rectangle prevents the preview from ending abruptly, so I
can figure out how to move the 2nd object to align with the first for a
seamless transition.
- Now it is just a matter of moving it a pixel or two this way or that -
done.

For your exact need, just copy and paste the second object to your next
slide to have it perfectly aligned at the end of the motion path. Don't
forget to delete it from the previous slide and also the "pause" rectangle.

PS: And I like you solution Steve - it may actually be quicker in many
cases!

And much easier to clean off of your monitor!

Hello Scott,

PowerPoint does not have the specific capability that you are looking for.
The scope of animation effects (with the exception of multimedia) is the
slide in which the object, to which the animations are applied, resides.

If you (or anyone else reading this message) think that PowerPoint should
provide features which allow animations and other content to span multiple
slides, don't forget to send your feedback to Microsoft at:

http://register.microsoft.com/mswish/suggestion.asp

As with all product suggestions, it's important that you not just state
your wish but also why it is important to you that your product suggestion
be implemented by Microsoft. Microsoft receives thousands of product
suggestions every day and we read each one but, in any given product
development cycle, there are only sufficient resources to address the ones
that are most important to our customers so take the extra time to state
your case as clearly and completely as possible.

IMPORTANT: Each submission should be a single suggestion (not a list of
suggestions)
