Trigger Exit animation then motion path
Aug 06, 2021
I have 4 pics on the slide. When/if selected, I want it to shrink and then move along a motion path.
I need learner to see a larger image, but when selected it shrinks and moves to a particular spot when the learner selects it, but the spot is smaller than the pic size. Essentially I’m having the learner sort 4 video clips into the correct order. After they pick the 1st, it’ll score and move to next slide for picking the 2nd video clip.
I can’t figure out how to make the shrinking (exit animation) trigger and then the motion path trigger based on whichever pic is chosen.
I've searched and can't find a discussion exactly like this. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, Sharon.
Thank you for reaching out! I'm looking forward to the suggestions you will receive from our talented community members! In the meantime, I wanted to offer an idea.
Would it work for your scenario if you use a change of state instead of an exit animation?
You can have a state called shrink, for example, with the smaller object. Then when the user clicks the object, two triggers happen:
Here's what this would look like:
Let me know if that's an option for you!
Thanks so much for the suggestion! I was hoping that it would actually shrink. The driving need of this functionality is that the area where the pic moves to (animation path) is much smaller than the pic itself. Thus the shrink animation, just to make both actions look like 1 smooth movement when the learner selects it. I read that exit animation don't work on States, and I tested to confirm that exit animation doesn't work when you trigger to show a layer. So, hoping for another option. Thanks again for sharing a possible solution!
