MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / November 2006Shapes
Hi there, 2 questions in 1, regarding moving shapes around. 1. The simpler question is within this macro how would you get the screen to show the movement of the shape as it goes down the screen? Sub MoveItInSlideShow() For i = 1 To 100 With SlideShowWindows(1).Presentation.Slides(1).Shapes("Rule 1.01") .IncrementTop 0.75 End With Next i End Sub 2. How could I invoke this macro by first moving another shape and then clicking the left or right mouse button. In simple terms moving a funnel sideways and then releasing a shape, and watch it fall to the floor. (I actually want to have a slide to represent "Deming's Funnel Experiment" if any of you know that) many thanks in advance. Is there a reason you want to do this with macros? If you are using PowerPoint 2002 or above, this is much easier with normal animations (using triggers). If this procedure isn't showing the movement, you might want to add a delay between each movement. I suspect that it is happening too fast too see. --David  SignatureDavid M.
