Place shapes back at start point

[Jan Il]

Hi all - PPT 2002 XP, Windows ME

I have been working with the shapes with the graphics as backgrounds, and so
far all is good. )

However...I have added some triggers to the shapes in order to give them
specific animation, and they are behaving as I wish, except for one thing.
They stop where they stop...??? And some are on top/behind each other. Is
this normal, and if so, is there a way to get them to go back to their
original position after they are done with their 'lil animation tricks?

So far, as I am just testing, I have them set so that each one goes through
it's animation and such, but, it does not return to the point of origin.
Sorry, it's my first try with PPT 2002 and triggers, so, I don't know. )

Best regards,
Jan

Go to the effect options (right click on the effect itself and you will find
this) and see if rewind is checked. (Not sure off the top of my head which
tab it is on, sorry)

Hey Kathy!

Go to the effect options (right click on the effect itself and you will find
this) and see if rewind is checked. (Not sure off the top of my head which
tab it is on, sorry)

Yep...there ya go! I found it on the Timing tab and checked the rewind box.
Too cool! No wonder I couldn't find any info about how to get them back in
place, I was looking for reset. Oh well...at least I was in the ball park, I
just got stuck to the bench. ;-)

Thanks for the help Kathy!
