msoAnimEffectMediaPlayFromBookmark

[manu_79]

hello,

there are no documentation about msoAnimEffectMediaPlayFromBookmark or a example with that enum in MSDN. Can someone tell me how can msoAnimEffectMediaPlayFromBookmark be used?

I think for example: ActiveWindow.View.Slide.TimeLine.InteractiveSequences.Add.AddTriggerEffect( mediaShape, msoAnimEffectMediaPlayFromBookmark, msoAnimTriggerOnShapeClick, clickShape, "Bookmark A", MsoAnimateByLevel.msoAnimateLevelNone)

I tried with "Bookmark A". It works. But it is not working with "Bookmark B" or another bookmark! Where can I set a specied bookmark for msoAnimEffectMediaPlayFromBookmark. I suspect, Bookmark as String (name of bookmark) into methods addTriggerEffect is meant only for trigger and is not meant for effect. Right?

Thanks.

Thank you. But I didn't find msoAnimEffectMediaPlayFromBookmark. Only msoAnimTriggerOnMediaBookmark! Right? I think addTriggerEffect works only with TriggerBookmark and does not with EffectBookmark, or?

As far as I know it should be OnMediaBookmark (The help files can be wrong!)

To animate a shape from a media bookmark try
[vba]Sub trig()
Dim osld As Slide
Dim oshp As Shape
Dim oeff As Effect
Dim oshpmovie As Shape
Set osld = ActivePresentation.Slides(1)
Set oshpmovie = osld.Shapes(3)
Set oshp = osld.Shapes(4)
Set oeff = osld.TimeLine.InteractiveSequences.Add.AddTriggerEffect(oshp, msoAnimEffectPathCircle, _
msoAnimTriggerOnMediaBookmark, oshpmovie, "Bookmark 2")
End Sub[/vba]
