MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / January 2007Can I ____ in PowerPoint 2007 ?
Can PPT 2007 animate text separate from its' underline? For example: "The ___ is blue." Using the above sentence, the word "sky" should appear when the mouse is clicked. I am currently using the cover-up method to accomplish this task in PPT 2003. Initially, I show only the underline by using a cover-up object on the word. When the mouse is clicked, the cover-up object disappears and reveals the word and underline together. Albiet a bit tedious to set up, this method works beautifully in a presentation. However, because of varying resolutions and timings, this method works horribly when transfered to the web. It would be very nice indeed if PPT 2007 could animate text separate from its' underline. I would appreciate any info. Thanks > Can PPT 2007 animate text separate from its' underline? For example: > [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > > I would appreciate any info. Thanks Hi Jake, a lot has changed in 2007 - but not animation. You still need to either cover up the "missing" word or animate it in a separate text box. Best regards, Ute  SignatureUte Simon Microsoft PowerPoint MVP Team und PowerPoint-User-Team Tipps, Tricks und Kostenloser Newsletter: www.ppt-user.de Thank you for the info Ute. I am still curious, though. Is PPT 2007 now able to do what MS Word does with underlined text where it allows underlined text to be a different color from its' underline? If this is the case, a possible workaround would be to hide the underlined text as the backgroud color and show the underline as the normal text color. Then, on a mouse click, change the font color for the whole text object to the normal text color. For multiple "blanks", multiple text objects could be used. Any thoughts? > > Can PPT 2007 animate text separate from its' underline?

What you say also works: have the font color same as background color and underline color as the rest of the text color. Apply emphasis to change font color of the entire text and the word appears above the underline. - Chirag PowerShow - View multiple PowerPoint slide shows simultaneously http://officeone.mvps.org/powershow/powershow.html > Thank you for the info Ute.
