MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / November 2007Animation question
Hi! I would like to make two arrows do the same movement at the same time. Is there a way I can sort of "merge" the two images to form one single object that I can animate? Or perhaps there's a way to create a kind of "joint animation" for two objects to perform at the same time? Thanks for your help, Jamie It's not entirely clear what you mean. I'm guessing that you want to add the same motion path to two objects? If so just use ctrl click to select both and add the path in custom animations. Get back if this isn't it.

Well when I select the two arrows I can assign a "fade in" animation but when playing it, one arrow fades in first then the other one does. I want them both to fade in at the same time. So I guess either I need to have them at the same spot in the "object order" - which would create a kind of "joint animation" - or I would need to merge the two arrow objects into one and then assign "fade in" to that newly created object. Sorry if i wasn't very clear... I hope that's better now! :S I'm currently using PowerPoint for Mac. Thanks again, Jamie Try setting the second animation on the list to happen "With Previous" instead of "On Click" or "After Previous". That should get you what you are looking for!
