In PowerPoint 2003:

I've added an AutoShape - a rectangle which contains text. I have rotated
it about 30 degrees. Now I'd like to reduce it in size, move it, and
unrotate it. I'm using custom animation to resize and move it, but I do not
see a way to unrotate it at the same time. Is there a command or function
that I am missing?
Thanks
Bert
 
When you add Emphasis > Spin 30 degrees to the clockwise, you can add
Emphasis > Spin 30 Degrees to the Counter-clockwise to get it back to
original.

Bert,
Should be no problem. I'm guessing you applied an animation path to move the
AutoShape (on click), once you have done that, apply two emphasis effects,
the first to enlarge the shape (I think grow and shrink it is called), the
second to turn it (don't know the exact name but it is top of the list in the
righthand side column when your click more effects). Make them appear with
previous. Double click on the emphasis effect letting you turn the AutoShape,
choose effect tab, at the top of the dialog, click next to number, choose
direction left/right, and next to custom put in the number of degrees your
AutoShape was rotated, press Enter.
