MotionEffect Object (PowerPoint)
Represents a motion effect for an AnimationBehavior object.
Example
Use the MotionEffect propety of the AnimationBehavior object to return a MotionEffect object. The following example refers to the motion effect for a given animation behavior.
ActivePresentation.Slides(1).TimeLine.MainSequence.Item.Behaviors(1).MotionEffect
Use the ByX , ByY , FromX , FromY , ToX , and ToY properties of the MotionEffect object to construct a motion path. The ToY and ToX properties are in percentage, where ToX = 1.0 means 100% of slide width and ToY = 1.0 means 100% of slide height. The following example adds a shape to the first slide and creates a motion path.
Sub AddMotionPath()
Dim shpNew As Shape
Dim effNew As Effect
Dim aniMotion As AnimationBehavior
Set shpNew = ActivePresentation.Slides(1).Shapes _
.AddShape(Type:=msoShape5pointStar, Left:=0, _
Top:=0, Width:=100, Height:=100)
Set effNew = ActivePresentation.Slides(1).TimeLine.MainSequence _
.AddEffect(Shape:=shpNew, effectId:=msoAnimEffectCustom, _
Trigger:=msoAnimTriggerWithPrevious)
Set aniMotion = effNew.Behaviors.Add(msoAnimTypeMotion)
With aniMotion.MotionEffect
.FromX = 0
.FromY = 0
.ToX = .5
.ToY = .5
End With
End Sub
