Adjusting "jump slide" Timing
May 03, 2012
Good morning,
I have a presentation that has two "jump slides" in PPT with animations, but no narrative, audio, etc. I am trying to get them to be quick transitions which fade the previous screen to the following in a smooth manner. The problem I'm having is the frame is taking MUCH longer to transition than I set it for.
The following are the steps I've taken:
- In PPT, I've set up a multi-step animation with the first action "on click" and the rest "with previous," so when I preview it, all is seamless.
- On the Articulate ribbon, I've used Sync Animation; and it's about 1.8 seconds.
- I then checked the Audio Editor to check the length of the "dead air" space assigned (00:43:40 - 00:49:14). So, it's assigning about 6 seconds to the frame and not the 1.8. I've gone and deleted the additional time in the timeline here and hit the "Set Next Slide" marker to the desired location.
- In Slide Properties I've set the Advance to Automatically.
- After saving, etc. I've then previewed the series of slides (previous slide, transition and following) and it takes about 12 seconds for the transition to run! Not the 1.8 to 2 that I would expect.
- When I go back and check the Audio Editor, it's back at about 6-7 seconds.
Is there any way to override this so that the transition slide runs quickly?
Thank you!
Heather
