Hi there,

When I group several objects, each with different individual animations,
these animations disappear.
Is there a workaround for this?
I.e. I want to draw a cartoonlike truck. The wheels turn, the exhaust
smokes, etc.
Then I want the group the complete truck and add some other animations to it.
How to proceed?

Thanks,

Frans

Hi,

Grouping animated objects will always lose those animations. It sounds like
you are trying to cope with animated complexity. Try grouping objects and
animating them on different slides. Then you can paste them onto the one
slide to bring them together. But you will have to set your animations to
start at the same time.

Frans,

See http://www.pptxtreme.com/edit.asp.  It has a function to pickup and then
re-apply the animations.
