When I open custom animation details are displayed in the task pane. How do I
get custom animation to display details in a separate window instead of a
task pane ?

You don't, that is the idea behind having a task pane. <g> However with
that said, you may move and dock the task pane as desired.

Understand - Thanks for your response. Prior to a hard disk crash, custom
animation would open to a separate window which I have gotton very use to.
Any ideas how I can get back to this preferred setting ?

Was your animation task pane undocked? You should be able to grab the task
pane handle and drag it off to any location as a floating window.

Hello,

In addition to Shyam's advice, it might also be that you have the advanced
animations turned off. Go to tools, Options, edit tab and check to see if
the new animation effects is enabled.
