hello everybody, I have this slide where I have a box land on a straight line. When the box touches the line I need this last to bend because of the weight of the box. Using the morph transition I have the box fall on the line... but I cannot find a way to continue this animation into actually bending the line... can anybody suggest something?


Thanks for any help

I don’t think you can get realistic looking animated line bends using the ‘Morph’ feature.
You can move objects from one position to another, but using a straight line/curve and bending it with the Morph doesn’t work for me. Perhaps I’m not doing it right.
However, using conventional, time-consuming methods do work – slides with incremental changes in each slide and made to appear after a short time period.

Something like this, created in Powerpoint 2016:

Hi Moonshine, thank you for the reply.


Yes, what you have done is exactly what I need to achieve. Any chance that you can share the animation?

With pleasure - I have attached the Presentation. Hope it helps you out.
Note: slide 2 does use a motion path.
