MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / November 2006Need text to scroll repeatedly w/phrases following each other
I'm trying to animate text to scroll from right to left in a loop. I have several phrases that I want to follow one another in the loop. Can anyone help? Roxanne, You can do that with PowerPoint 2002/2003. Create a textbox and type the ticker text. Drag the textbox out of the slide in the grey area at the left of the slide. In the Custom Animation task pane choose - Add effect - Entrance - Crawl In of Fly In - from right. Adjust the speed to your preference. Double click the effect, select Timing tab, choose Until End of Slide in the repeat dropdown field. If you want you can have several boxes, if so set a delay timing that is suitable in the timing tab and apply a with previous.

Hi Luc, Did what you said on 1st part. Worked ok. 2nd however is not working correctly. I made three boxes set timing to delay 10 sec on each (I progreassed up a second trying to get a seperation) 2nd two to go after previous and all till click ends show. 1st txt box goes two times then the rest are in a race to over take box 1. Could you expound a little on this statement "if so set a delay timing that is suitable in the timing tab and apply a with previous." Thank you > Roxanne, > You can do that with PowerPoint 2002/2003.

KingsKid43, You are right, I tested it with two boxes and it did seem to work providing the delay between the two was not too large. Maybe you will need to put the text in one box, if that is possible. SignatureLuc Sanders (MVP - PowerPoint) > Hi Luc, Did what you said on 1st part.

Try having two identical copies of a phrase (each about a screen width) give one an exit fly out (to left) and the other a with previous fly in from right. Then superimpose them SignatureDid that answer the question / help? ___________________ John Wilson Microsoft Certified Office Specialist http://www.technologytrish.co.uk/ppttipshome.html email john AT technologytrish.co.uk > I'm trying to animate text to scroll from right to left in a loop.
