Loop each slide; all have animations

[Cotu]

I have a presentation of 10 slides. Each slide has three images on it. The slides have animations so first image#1 appears, then goes away, then image#2 appears, etc., etc.

After image#3, I want the slide to loop back to #1, then #2, then #3, and keep repeating that until I mouse-click to bring up the next slide.

I'm hoping this is doable--please tell me how!

Set up each object so it will fade in and fade out like you want.
You may want to adjust the timing for visual appeal.
On two of the objects set them to " until the end of slide "
in the Custom Animation section.
On the third object set it to " until next click "
You may have to adjust the order in which they apear and
disappear but it works just fine.
Hope this helps and is clear enough.

I think I'm missing something... I tried that and after the first time through the images start blinking together in unison. I don't s'pose you can post a sample here? BTW, I'm using PP 2003.

Yeah, I've worked on that a bit, and I don't think it's gonna work. I'm thinking to create little Flash sequences to include on each slide I want to do this with.

Unless anyone can figure out how to do it without Flash...?

I had the same need: this solution works quite well, except that the presenter must use the Escape key to end the loop & advance to the next slide.

I have done this.

Slide Show and Set up show can work.

You will need to set up custom shows. It is a bit fiddly but should achieve what you are looking for.

To set up those custom shows....

1. Create your slides with animations as required.
2. Draw a full screen sized rectangle over each slide ans set fill to 99% transparent and line to none
3. Make each slide a "Custom Show" Slide show > Custom shows
4. Slide show set up show > Loop continuously and "Show Slides"= Custom show 1 (or whatever name )
5. Give each of the rectangles you added an action of hyperlink to the next Custom show. DO NOT tick show and return.

Each slide will loop till a click and then move to the next.
