PPT animations not converting properly
Mar 26, 2013
Good day,
I am having an issue with some animation timing I am trying to accomplish.
My slides have a blackboard background image. I have chosen a script font, and the "Fade" animation on each seperate bullet/point/paragragh. I am able to lengthen the time of the fade, (from .5 secs to 5 secs, and more) and this will show properly when published.
My problem is as follows. When I choose the text that is to fade in, go into "Effect Options", I can choose to "Animate text" "All at once/By word/By letter", and extend the time delay between each. When viewed in PPT Slideshow mode, it gives a nice effect as if it was being written instead of just appearing. The problem is, when published, all of that costumization is missing, and all I am left with is the fade with any "Duration delay" I may have incorporated.
Is there something I'm missing, or will Articulate not convert all animation option/customizations?
Thanking you ahead of time for any help.

Hi S.
Unfortunately, it sounds like you may be trying to use one of the few unsupported animation options in Presenter.
Any chance you'd be able to use a different, supported animation in your project?
Thank you for the confirmation. I will look over the animations again, see if anything else looks like text being written by an invisible writer.
Any suggestions?

Hi S.,
Maybe something like this would help? Hopefully it at least gives you some ideas to get started
Hello, S!
Did you try to use other rapid authoring tools? Adobe Presenter and iSpring Sutie support animations by words/letters.
