Weird things since upgrading to PP 2010 - eg synching probs
Nov 10, 2011
Hi there,
I've looked through the forums and I can't find this issue:
I upgraded to PP2010 a couple of weeks ago, and am having issues with a couple of things, mainly with synching shapes with text. (Presenter 9 by the way)
The PP doc was originally created in 2007, then I have continued to edit in 2010.
I've got a speech bubble shape with the text inserted into it, that I animate to fade in.
Looks OK when I animate, looks OK when I preview the single slide, but when I preview the enitre course the speech bubble shape doesn;t animate in - as soon as the slide appears there's that pesky shape just sitting there. A second later, the text fades in over the top.
I've resolved it by removing the text from the shape, and just putting the text in a text box over the top and grouping it.
But - pretty annoying. Has anyone else had this issue or others when working in a 2007 / 2010 presentation?
I generally create new PP presentations by doing a 'save as' from existing files - but as the original docs were 2007 I fear this may cause me ongoing issues - guess i need to go ahead and recreate my PP templates etc from scratch in 2010?
Cheers,
Sarah.

Hi Sarah,
What type of animation are you using on the text bubble? See if this is helpful:

Thanks!
Hi Peter,
Nothing fancy - just fade in.
I use it a lot, and have had no probs in presentations created solely in 2007 - but in this one presentation I'm doing now it's an issue.
I thought putting a text box separately over the bubble had worked - fine when I previewed the enitre presentation, but as soon as I published it it stopped working.
I'll upload something shortly for you to look at - appreciate your help.
Cheers
Sarah.
