The ability to add effects to any object was a new and long-awaited feature of Captivate 5.
In the next exercise, we will animate the Adobe Media encoder logo we inserted on slide 3 in the previous chapter.
1. Return to the
Chapter04/encoderDemo_800.cptx
file.2. Use the Filmstrip to go to slide 2.
3. Use the preview icon to preview the Next 5 Slides.
When the preview reaches slide 3, pay particular attention to how the Adobe Media Encoder logo enters and leaves the stage. Besides the Fade In and Fade Out, no particular effect is applied. Close the Preview pane when finished.
4. Back in the
Chapter04/encoderDemo_800.cptx
file, go to slide 3 and select the Adobe Media Encoder logo.5. In the Transition accordion of the Properties panel, open the Effect drop-down list and choose No Transition.
We remove the Fade In and Out transition because we want to replace it with a much more sophisticated effect.
6. Use the Window | Effects menu to open the Effects panel.
