Create the option to click and zoom-in on image
Hi Doina!
It sounds like the ZOOM REGION feature might be perfect for you.
Go to INSERT > Zoom Region and then you will be prompted to highlight the area you want to zoom in on.
Next you'll need to adjust the zoom region animation by moving it so it doesn't start at 0:00 in your timeline.
Finally, trigger the zoom to start and stop by pausing and resuming your timeline (I use cue points for this to keep it simple and easy to adjust)
Give it a try, I think it will do exactly what you need.
If you need more help, just ask :)
Hi Andrew! Thank you for taking time to answer this. Ron's solution was actually what I was looking for. However, I will save your steps for whenever I need to zoom in just a particular area, very useful, thank you!
Hello Andrew, thank you for this option. Can you pls explain in detail. I have a slide with an image - 3 clicks on the image which opens a layer each (so 3 layers). Now the ask is to also have a zoomed in version of that image/clcikable portion in layer alongwith text. Can you pl guide how to go about same.
Note: I had created 3 rectangles for 3 clickable portions on the image.
Hello NidhiSahni,
Thanks for reaching out! I understand you have an image on your base slide layer, and you're looking for the option to zoom in on three clickable sections to see a close-up of the image along with some text. I'd like to share a recommendation for your design!
1. Insert a Freeform Hotspot Question.
2. In Form View, insert an image and the appropriate hotspots for the sections of the image you'd like to be zoomed in.
3. Create a layer and insert the original image.
4. Crop the image to the hotspot outline and enlarge the image. Then, insert the appropriate text.
5. Depending on your preference, you can insert a hover trigger or two triggers so learners can click in and out of the selected area.
