             Pausing Motion
             ProShow features some right-click options that can help you make effects
             similar to the previous example with even fewer clicks.

             In this first example, we'll be using the Pause Motion Until Here option.
             We'll start with a static object that holds in place for a moment, then moves
             and zooms in.


             Using Pause Motion Until Here
                1.   Create a new slide by dragging and dropping any image you want
                    into the Slide List.  Change the Slide Time to 5 seconds, and the
                    Transition Time to 1 second.
                2.   Double-click on the slide to open the Slide Options window.

                3.   Select Keyframe 1, set the Pan values to -25 x 0 and the Zoom
                    values to 50%

                4.   Select Keyframe 2, set the Pan values to 0 x 0 and the Zoom
                    values to 100%

                    If you preview the slide, you'll see a very basic zoom in that fills the
                    slide frame from the left side of the screen.

                5.   Next, right-click on the Keyframe Timeline
                                                           Insert
                    in between the 1 and 2 second marks.
                                                           Insert Multiple  ...
                    From the menu, select Pause Motion Until   Paste
                    Here.  This will add new keyframe at this
                                                           Set Slide Time
                    point with settings that are the exact same
                    as the keyframe that comes before it.     DoletoAII
                                                           Reset All
                    In this case it will create Keyframe 2 and   Pause Motion Until  Here
                    copy Keyframe 1's settings.  It will also set
                                                           Time Format
                    all options on this newly added keyframe
                    to manual.
             When you preview the slide again, the image layer will be still for a
             moment, and then fill the screen.

             In this second example, we're going to start with a basic zoom, then add
             keyframes that will create a ‘pause, then move’ effect.
