zoom in from center animation effect

[Guest]

I recently switched from PP 97 to 2002. In Powerpoint 2002, I can't locate the "zoom in from center" animation feature. How can I animate multiple objects on a page to enter in from the center of the slide, as was accomplished with the "zoom in from center" effect?

Hi,

Add animation, Entrance, Zoom. Then in the drop down menu where is says
"Zoom, In, drop it down and you will see Zoom in from screen centre.

Hello,

You can accomplish this in PowerPoint 2002 and 2003 as follows:

1) Select object(s)
2) Slide Show -> Custom Animation (brings up Custom Animation (CA) task
pane)
3) In CA pane, Click on Add Effect button and choose Entrance effect of Zoom
4) In CA pane, Choose "In from Screen Center" from the "Zoom" drop-down
menu.
