I do not think it is possible to carry motion path animation from slide to slide seamlessly if the user can choose the timing of the slide change.
Only way that that I can think of is cheating a bit a and making some of the slides as layers instead of actual slides. Then you could just trigger Next and and Previous buttons to work so that they cycle through the layers instead of slides.
Of course this has some problems, namely as those "slides" that are actually layers will not appear in Menu, and some things like automatic slider numbering would break and so on.
And if the original slides already have layers in them then of course that functionality will have to be reworked.
Story-file is attached to show how I would do this if needed.
Hi Luciana,
I appreciate your response. I have attached my project where I am using layers but in my first version I was using all slides. Either way, the motion path restarts each time a trigger brings up a new slide or layers. If I cannot get a seamless effect then I will just leave it out since it does impact the functionality. However, I ran across something that is more of a problem. Can I ask you that here as well, or should I start a new thread? The problem is with my slider. When I duplicate the slide or layer it sometimes changes the name of the slider and I found that messes with my triggers since they have different names. Is there a fix for this?
I appreciate your help!
