Click to zoom

Jun 11, 2014

Is there a way for the user to click an item on a slide to zoom in closer to that item? I can add zoom regions, but only as timed effects.

Another option:

Created a layer called 'closer'. The 'closer' layer has the enlarged image, animated to grow with a duration of 1s triggered by the  magnifier icon with the label reading "select to enlarge" with 'show layer' trigger .  The 'closer' layer is limited to a 3s timeline. This layer has another variation of the magnifier icon labeled 'shrink'.   

A trigger pauses this layer's timeline at 1.5s.  The image has a shrink out animation with a duration of 1s.  This layer's marker trigger resumes the timeline.  A second trigger is set to hide the layer upon timeline end.   This gives the illusion that the image is growing and shrinking.
