Using Multiple Triggers

[dslocum]

Using PPT 2007.
I have four images (Red Box, Green Box, Blue Box, Orange Box) that
want to appear one at a time when launched by individual triggers (Re
trigger, Green trigger, Blue trigger, Orange trigger). This is n
problem. However, I want to start with none of the Boxes displayed an
I only want one Box to display at a time.

Here's what I want: I want to open the slide with just the fou
triggers visible; when I click the Red Trigger I want the Red Box t
appear. I want to then be able to click ANY of the remaining trigger
and have that trigger's box appear and the Red Box to disappear.
then want to click any of the remaining triggers, including the Re
trigger, and have that box appear while at the same time having th
previous box disapper.

I have the Red Trigger make the Red Box APPEAR and the Green, Orang
and Blue Boxes DISAPPER. The three disappering boxes are set to Star
With Previous so that when I click the Red Trigger the Red Box display
and any box that happens to be displayed Disappers. I have set th
remaining three triggers to do the same with the corresponding colore
box Appearing and whichever box is currently displayed Disappearing.

Here's my problem; when I open the slide, the Red Box is hidden a
desired but the three remaining boxes are visible. Once I click all o
the buttons the boxes work as desired. How do I keep the three boxe
hidden until the first time I click their applicable triggers?

Thank You!!!!!!

What if you set a Disappear animation to happen when the slide starts
(at the beginning With Previous after 0 seconds). That should do the
trick.

David,

OMG of course. What I did was place a white box over the images (ther
is a white background) and I had it disappear with the the firs
trigger. This means that I have to know which trigger to click first.

YOUR WAY IS MUCH BETTER!!!!!!!

Thank you David,
