Changing animation order in SmartArt

Hello,

I would like to change the animation order in a SmartArt graphic. Essentially I have 5 text boxes and an arrow. The arrow appears second after the first box then the rest of the boxes appear (when enter individually is checked). I would like the arrow to appear last but the up/down arrows to change the order are greyed out. Is there a way to do this or a workaround?

Thanks

Hi,

When you click into the Custom Animation part of the Formatting Palette
you'll see all the animations listed in the order in which they will
play from the top to the bottom.

You can select each animation and click the up and down arrows in the
Palette to change the order.
