This may be silly question…..sorry…...but I have a ppt file with a picture in
it which moves (cogs in a wheel)…very effective, but I want to be able to run
it for a while then stop the movement after say 10 seconds or so. All I know
is that when I saved it as a picture, it saved as an EMF image….any ideas…?

Thanks, Ian
 
Its not a silly question. The moving picture will probably be an animated
gif. There is no way to control the movement (ie stop it) in powerpoint.

However heres the good news! Try this.
Copy the "moving picture" and" paste special" as a png file. You should now
have a moving version and a still version.

Set the moving version to exit > dissapear after 10 secs delay and the still
version to entrance > appear after the same time. Place them on top of each
other.

See if that does it - get back if not!

Did that answer the question / help?
