"Hide on next mouse click" with individual chart elements

[Lereio]

Microsoft Office PowePoint 2003: I am using custom animation to introduce
lines in a chart, one at a time "on click" in slide show mode. As I advance
to the next series, I want the previous line to hide. However, when I set
the "hide on next mouse click" on one line, it does that for all elements and
doesn't work properly.

Please email me if you have a resolution to this issue and/or need more
explanation.

The animation options for charts are not very sophisticated. You will have
to ungroup the chart, group the individual lines, and animate each line
using the typical custom animation features.

I'd make a copy of the chart and drag it off the edge of the slide before I
ungrouped it, though. That way it's still available if you need to make
changes to it or something. Also, sizing it (right-click, choose Format,
change the % on the size tab) to 5% x 5% will prevent it from shoving your
main slide over to the edge of the workspace.

Sorry, no can do. That doesn't benefit anyone else, which is the whole point
of newsgroups and forums. Besides, (e-mail address removed) isn't a
real email address. (I don't recommend you add your real address to your
posting profile, I'm just pointing this out.)
