Dear all,
I just realised a pp 2010 presentation.
Not that much animationswithin. But between the slides I'd like a break for 5 s.
But it doesn't work. Even if put 200 s as a delay value, it changes to next slide immedately.


Restarting the pc , saving under a new name doesn't help. Anyone with the same strange behavior?
Best regards

If you mean it changes immediately AFTER the animations end then that's how it works if the delay is set to a figure smaller than the total animation time.

The best workaround is to set an extra animation that takes for example 5 secs but cannot be seen (drag it OFF the slide). The slide will wait for this invisible animation to finish.

Great idea. It works fine now. Strange, that even if I set the duration to 200 s and the total animation time is 20 s (10 * 2 s) it doesn't wait, but changes the slide at once.
But that is IT, I guess. Incredible thinking.

IF you set the delay to 200 secs and the animations take 20 it would wait so there's something wrong.
