first level paragraphs

Dec 31, 2013

I am having trouble dividing up my text by paragraph on the timeline.  When I try to animate it or record by paragraph and divide the text into paragraphs, I am still getting only one line on my timeline.  Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Liz

Hi Liz,

There are two ways to animate text by paragraph;

  1. Use a single text box that contains your text, each new line (created by hitting "enter") will be treated as a separate paragraph - You can animate your text by selecting the "by first level paragraph" in the animations menu.

    2.   Another way is to write each paragraph in its own text box and animate each box separately. This way each paragraph will have           their own time line instance. (this method requires more fiddling with animation timing)
