Animation
Animation effects let you make objects move in your exported SWF files. For example, you can apply a motion preset
to an image that makes it appear to fly in from the left side of the screen while shrinking and spinning. Use the following
tools and panels to animate documents.
Animation panel Apply a motion preset and edit settings such as duration and speed.
Direct Selection tool and Pen tool Edit the path on which the animated object travels.
Timing panel Determine the order in which objects on a page are animated.
Preview panel View the animation in an InDesign panel.
Note: A related type of animation you can add in InDesign is a button rollover effect. For more information, see Create
buttons .
Jeff Witchel from Infiniteskills.com provides a video overview on Animating layouts.
Animate a document with motion presets
Motion presets are pre-made animations that you can apply to objects quickly. Use the Animation panel to apply motion
presets and change animation settings such as duration and speed. The Animation panel also lets you specify when an
animated object plays.
These motion presets are the same as those found in Adobe Flash CS5 Professional. You can import any custom motion
preset created in Flash Professional. You can also save motion presets you create and use them in InDesign or Flash
Professional.
Animation features are supported only when exporting to the Adobe Flash Player (.SWF). They are not supported when
exporting to Interactive PDF. To add animation effects to a PDF file, export a selection as a SWF file from InDesign and
place that SWF file in the InDesign document.
1 Place the object you want to animate in your document.
2 In the Animation panel (Window > Interactive > Animation), choose a motion preset from the Preset menu.
3 Specify motion preset options.
4 To edit the motion path, use the Pen tool and Direct Selection tool.
5 Use the Timing panel to determine the order of the animation effects.
6 Use the Preview panel to preview the animation in InDesign.
