AnimateTextInReverse Property

MsoTriState

expression.AnimateTextInReverse

*expression   * Required. An expression that returns one of the objects in the Applies To list.

Remarks

You won't see effects of setting this property unless the specified shape gets animated. For a shape to be animated, the TextLevelEffect property of the AnimationSettings object for the shape must be set to something other than ppAnimateLevelNone and the Animate property must be set to True.

Example

This example adds a slide after slide one in the active presentation, sets the title text, adds a three-item list to the text placeholder, and sets the list to be built in reverse order.

With ActivePresentation.Slides.Add(2, ppLayoutText).Shapes
    .Item(1).TextFrame.TextRange.Text = "Top Three Reasons"
    With .Item(2)
        .TextFrame.TextRange = "Reason 1" & Chr(13) _
            & "Reason 2" & Chr(13) & "Reason 3"
        With .AnimationSettings
            .Animate = msoTrue
            .TextLevelEffect = ppAnimateByFirstLevel
            .AnimateTextInReverse = msoTrue
        End With
    End With
End With
