Animation Options

Move/Resize Allows you to move the animation object around the page area.
Centre Vertically Centres the animation object vertically on the page.
Centre Horizontally Centres the animation object horizontally on the page.
Edit Images Allows you to add, remove or reselect the images that go to make up your animation
Properties Allows you to edit the Animation properties (position, size, increment or speed, initial state and repeat options)

The increment number you specify will depend on how quickly you want the animation to play.  The lower the number you specify, the quicker the animation will cycle through the selected images.

Setting the animation to ‘Cycle’ will repeat the animation indefinitely or until some other action causes it to stop.

You may want to assign different positions on the page for the animation.  For example if your animation is an arrow, you may want to create an animation that moves the arrow from position a. to position b. on the page.  You may set the x,y co-ordinates for each image in the animation, and the number of steps it should take to get from position a. to position b.

Copy Copies the selected animation object to the clipboard, for pasting either into the current page, or any other page in the current lesson.
Duplicate Copies the selected animation object to the clipboard, for pasting either into the current page, or any other page in the current lesson.

Note: The duplicated animation object may not be initially visible because it appears on top of the currently selected animation object.  Move the duplicate object away from the selected/source object to view it.
Delete Deletes the currently selected animation object.  Be aware that there is no ‘confirm delete’ dialogue box when you delete objects.
Cancel  Cancels / removes the Animation Options box.
