What feature should I use?

Dec 01, 2015

I'm struggling with how to make this work:

I would like the user to click on the RIGHT ARROW, and have a new image fly in from the right, as the existing image flies out to the left.

Similarly, I'd like them to be able to click the LEFT ARROW, and have the images do the opposite (showing the previous image).

I looked up toggles and buttons, but I don't know if that's the answer to what I'm wanting to accomplish with these arrows... help!

Thanks!! -Erin

You could use motion path animations to move the images left/right or right/left. Or, you could use layers like in this example: http://dev.keypointlearn.com/xcl71_SL/ImageSlider/story.html

Michael - that example is actually what I'm going for. How did you get the pictures to have that swipe effect? I get that you would set the animation to be a fly-in from the right, but if you're revisiting the layer (by clicking the left/back arrow), how do you set it so that it flies in from the left instead of the right, which would have been the original animation for the object?
