continuous scrolling custom animation

L

lsliwa

I have pictures with names beside them that I would like to scroll like
credits. I've set up the custom animation, add effect, entrance to credits.
After scrolling through 7 of them it stops. How do I get it to continuously
scroll through all 22 names like credits?

Instead of using credits animation, you can use Entrance > Fly in. Then, drag
the textbox off the slide (to the top of the slide).
Click on the added fly in effect, set the direction to bottom.
Lastly, set the speed of your preference.

Just to add on, you should also group the names (and pictures too, if you
want them to be scrolling) together. To do so, select the names and pictures,
then click Draw (located on the drawing toolbar at the bottom) > Group.

I have built a presentation welcoming new arrivals to our camp here in
Baghdad and have encountered a similar situation. The opening slide is a
message from the Site Manager welcoming the new arrival; the sequence of
events is as follows:
1. Map of Iraq “pinwheels†in, at the same time a wav file of the Star Wars
theme begins.
2. As soon as the slide settles the site manager’s welcoming text starts to
scroll – “At a Forward Operating Base far, far, away ….â€
A. Text box,
B. Entrance: Credits
C. Effect:
1. No Sound (Star Wars in playing)
2. After Animation – Don’t Dim
3. Animate text – All at once
D. Timing:
1. Start: After Previous
2. Delay: 0.5 seconds
3. Speed: 39 seconds
4. Repeat: none
5. No rewind
6. No Triggers
E. Text Animation:
1. Group Text: As one object
F. Exit: Fade, Very Fast
3. Text box “Eases In†â€Welcome to Iraqâ€
4. That fades out, the map of Iraq follows and about five seconds later the
presentation automatically transitions to Slide 2.

The problem I’m having is with the site manager’s message. I would like to
get the effect used in the opening scene of the “Star Wars†movies; you know,
how the text is sort of laid back and is fed back into the screen. And
actually I can’t tell you what combinations I have tried, because there have
been so many and haven’t been able to hit on the right one.

Is there anyone out there that may be able to give me a hand?

I figured it out, I used a combination of "Credit" entrance and "Faded/Zoom"
exit in 3D Word Art boxes.
