"Trigger - Start effect on click of: "Object"" Where?

[Yue Sasuke]

I bought the office 2004 Student and Teacher Edition, for my new
computer mac. Before I have a mac I was a Windows XP user with
PowerPoint 2003, wich I used a lot of times a option called Trgger in
timing effect option where the affect started with the clik of an
object. This is what I'm having dificulties to find in Power Point
2004. I would like to know if that option is in PowerPoint 2004, and
if it is, where is it?

Best Regards

Hello,

Welcome to the Macintosh side of things.

There are several ways to get to the setting that you are interested in.

If you have a two-button mouse you can right-click on any object and
choose Custom Animation from the pop-up menu. The "Start" property near
the middle-right side of the dialog box is what you are looking for. If
you have a one-button mouse hold the control-key down on the keyboard
and then click on any object. The right mouse button on a Windows
machine represents the Control-Click of the Macintosh.

Another way to get to the same menu is to select an object and then use
the SlideShow menu and choose Custom Animation.

Yet another is to put the Custom Animation button onto a toolbar. You
can do this by going to the Tools menu and choose Customze > Menus and
toolbars. Another handy tool from that section is Animation Prevew.

Once you have the Custom Animation dialog box open there's an Options
button that lets you fine tune the settings.

Thanks again for the replay

You have help me a lot, but seems that in the Star menu I only find 3
options, "On click", "After Previous" and "With Previous". I'm looking
to start one animation when I click on a picture, is like a hyperlink
to a animation affect, but you don't go to another slide, you just put
a animation afect running. Can I do it?

I don't know if the problem is for having the student edtion. Is there
any difference this edition and other ones?
