I tryed to add 2 text animations on the same slide, to have more than one size of text. I wanted the second to begin when the first is finished, but neither show when I preview. I tried moving the second animation to a second slide, still neither show.

    I have tried it many times, having more than one text animations in one slide, and it works perfectly. Which text animation are you trying? I wonder if this is a problem with any specific animation.

    BTW its Captivate 1, or Captivate 2.

    thanks

    Hi all

    Like DilbertG, I too see them work without issue. I tried in both Captivate 1 as well as Captivate 2.

    I also have questions.

    * Have you ensured that you haven't configured a text color identical to the background? This would render things invisible.
    * Do you have other objects on the slide? Possibly click boxes or buttons that pause the slide before the text animation can play?
    * How exactly are you previewing? F3/Spacebar, Next 5 slides or what?

    Hi Rick and all,

    Can anyone point to any examples of using text animations?

    Curious to see what I'm missing and find sources of inspiration.

    Best,
