Trialling Xara Xtreme Pro
A few questions if I may?
Frame 2: Can't tween name <Pats> of text object: Text change
Tweening is What
How does one add a picture in at the end of an animation?
Can one put an animation before a powerpoint file, leading into the powerpoint, or leading out as an exit from a powerpoint?

Hello Gordon,
Welcome to Talkgraphics.
Tweening is a term used in Flash animation were a named object is changed in steps from one frame to another. There are some limitations to how the object can be changed that are explained in the Xara Help.
I'm not sure how to answer your question referencing PowerPoint. In what context would the animation and PowerPoint presentation be used?
PowerPoint has the ability to embed an animation within the presentation.

Thanks Bill
Re powerpoint, I could do an animation and embed the animation into the file, that answers that query.
Not sure what I am doing wrong re tweening, I keep getting error messages.
ie:
Frame 2: Unpaired tween name <Blog> of text object
Whatever I am doing wrong the more frames I add into an animation, the more inpaired tweens I have, so I must not be pairing them up correctly, still trying to figure it out

An unpaired tween name indicates that an object is named in one frame but does not have the same or possibly any name in another frame.
This can be caused by naming your objects after creating frames.
You can use the name gallery and the frame gallery.
1. Open both the Name and Frame galleries
2. Select the object in the first frame it appears in. Verify it's name or assign it a name if it does not have one.
3. In the frame gallery select the next frame.
4. Select the object in the frame and verify it has the same name. If it does not select the name in the Name Gallery and then click the Apply tab.
Repeat until the object to be 'tweened' has the same name in all frames in which it is present. The names of objects are also copied so they persist in all frames of the animation.
Typically I begin an animation by naming the objects in the first frame created. All subsequent frames are created by clicking the Copy frame icon in the Animation Infobar.

Welcome Gordon
I'm not sure trial is a verb. Trialing sounds like marketing speak to me. :rolleyes:
