Re: Use VBA to rotate an object during a show

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Try playing with a reference to the shape since you can't select it
during a slide show. This might help as a simple example that does
select the shape.

I have a presentation that shows several objects against a polar coordinate
system.

My goal is to allow the user to interactively change the rotation angle of a
selected object by clicking on a horizontal scroll bar, during the
presentation. The scroll bar will include a display of the angle of rotation
(scrollbar value).

If it is not possible to dynamically change the angle (and redraw the
display), then I guess that an action button (macro) will be required to
redraw the display.

I understand some VBA syntax, but this level of coding is beyond my
experience.
