396 15. Motion

Panning and Zooming a Caption

1. In the Build or Design Workspace Toolbar, click the
Add Title icon to create a new Title Slide. This will
create a new slide and open the Slide Options
window for you.

2. Under the Caption Settings tab, in the Selected Caption Text
pane, type "Slideshow".

3. In the Caption Format pane, change the Font to Georgia, the
Size to 20, and enable Bold.

4. In the Caption Placement area, change the Alignment to
Center Justified and drag the caption so that it is centered and
at the top of the Preview window.
So far this uses only the tools you learned about in the Captions chapter.
Once you have a caption you'll use the options found in the Effects tab to
set up the motion for the caption.

5. Click on the Effects tab above the preview.

6. Click the small preview on the left labeled Next (Keyframe 2).
Use the Keyframe Indicators or Keyframe Selector Ribbon to
make sure you have the Ending Position selected and in the
active preview window.

7. In the Caption Motion & Adjustments pane, change the Font
Size to 72. This increase in font size basically does the same
thing as zooming in on a layer.

8. In the active preview, click and drag the caption to the bottom
of the screen.

Press the Play icon at the bottom of the Slide Options window to see the
results. You'll notice that the effect you have created for the caption is just
like panning and zooming a layer. When the slide begins, your caption is
smaller and at the top of the screen. As the slide plays, the caption grows in
size and moves to the bottom.
