Animate Writing Text?
Jun 11, 2013

Hi all,
I'm having our students go through a fill in the blank exercise on paper to accompany a video clip and would like to animate the action on the Storyline slide. For example, the following:
Misunderstanding causes most of the problems found in exporting and importing.
This sentence is taught in a video clip and I would like to animate the word "misunderstanding" being written on the slide next to the video clip.
Anyway to do this. Having it just fade in as a bullet point is not ideal for the purpose of communicating to the student that it is a fill in the blank answer.
Thanks for any help and ideas!

Hi Alex! There are a few different ways to get this effect. One quick and easy way is to make each letter a separate object, each set to display sequentially in the correct order.
You might also take a look at this conversation on this same topic and there are even a few sample files there to look at too:

Thanks, Mike. I'll take a look and tinker around with this. I know this was kind of an odd request.
No, not odd at all Alex. Hope that works for you and if not just check back in.
Mike
