Re: animated motion made easy on spreadsheets -- Mac



I have figured out how to do it on a Mac--works fine in both Excel 5 and
Office X:

The slider (scroll bar) control is in the "forms" toolbar.
You don't need to enter (or leave) "design mode" to use it.
Follow Mike's instructions for placing the scroll bar.
To bring up the properties dialog, command click (in Office X) or control
click (in Excel 5) and click on the "control" tab.
Enter values as indicated in Mike's instructions.

I hope I haven't forgotten anything here! Hard to keep my mail program and
my Excel going at the same time.

Question for Mike--does this mean you're not using Maple any more??

In addition to all the fine stuff at Pat Cooney's site, everyone should
have
a try at an animated spreadsheet.

Here are some instructions on how to do it.
