Making an item spin on a central axis
Good afternoon everyone, I'm currently working on a course where I'm trying to make a circular diagram spin on a central axis. It needs to rotate 90° after click on a trigger, four times until it's ...
Ant,
You can't add an animation to an object already in a state. However, you can copy and paste an item (that already has an animation added) to a state and the animation will run.
So the basic gist in the example above....
1. Add the object to the slide and then add the quarter turn spin animation.
2. Copy object.
3. Create a new state "Stop 1" and then paste the object to that state (deleting original object).
4. Duplicate Stop 1 to Create Stop 2 and rotate the object 90 degrees.
5. Repeat step 4 as necessary
6. Remove the animation on the original object on the base layer.
I hope this helps!

PS. I used the basic spin animation (quarter turn) and not a motion path.
