MikeA Posted September 7, 2019 Report Share Posted September 7, 2019 Can I copy the slide options e.g., animation keys and changes, from one slide to another? Not the image but just what happens to the image (at time X the image is zoomed etc). Can I do a copy to multiple slides at once? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jt49 Posted September 7, 2019 Report Share Posted September 7, 2019 Do it with a style! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeA Posted September 7, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2019 Yup! I thought that would be the response. But I don't want to apply something I can't edit from slide to slide. Basically I want the same set of keyframes applied at set intervals to a bunch of slides and then would like to tweak each later. Thanks for the reply.

Lin Evans Posted September 7, 2019 Report Share Posted September 7, 2019 What makes you think you can't edit from slide to slide? Just apply a style then tweak the settings! I do this all the time... The fact that a style is applied to a slide doesn't mean the settings are chiseled in stone. Best regards, Lin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeA Posted September 7, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2019 OK. Me dumb! I didn't see that the styling was done by varying the pan, zoom, and other controls. I looked earlier on at an image and missed it. I tried it and it works fine! Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lin Evans Posted September 7, 2019 Report Share Posted September 7, 2019 Not a problem - learning PTE is an ongoing process... Best regards, Lin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeA Posted September 8, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2019 Am I wrong - is there no obvious way to edit a style you create? The only way I see is to bring up a slide where you have applied the style, make changes, and then save the style as a new style creation but having the same name as the existing one. PTE will ask if you want to overwrite. Did I miss something again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lin Evans Posted September 8, 2019 Report Share Posted September 8, 2019 Mike, No, you didn't miss anything, that's essentially how one would edit a style. Creating styles, especially complex styles, is sometimes an iterative process where you make changes then try the style; make more changes, etc., until you get it the way you want.

jmG-06100 Posted September 12, 2019 Report Share Posted September 12, 2019 There is yet another way to do that, if you're shy with styles: First copy the image (the one with the animation that you want to keep) to another slide, then, in that new slide, simply substitute that image by another: in Objects & Animation click on the animated picture to select it, go to properties and select another "Picture" by clicking on the small triangle at the right of the name; that takes you to the list of files in the default folder (and you can navigate at will).
