Hi all,

You've been very helpful in the past. I tried searching here, but no
luck, so I decided to post.

Am using PowerPoint XP on a Windows XP Pro machine.

I have a large batch of animated slides (simple bars, entering by
series). I noticed that after adding the animation effect, the
Anti-Aliasing of the chart fonts seems to turn off. The fonts become
quite fuzzy, almost unreadable.

Am using simple Arial font, with some items turned to bold.

I have tried resetting the chart size to 100%, which does not seem to
help. The effective chart size is 112-120% (both dimensions.

Also, I can't believe that it is not possible to animate individual
series in a line chart to respond to independent triggers (GIF icons -
like logos). With all the improvements, isn't there a way to do this.

Thanks in advance,

Dan

Best I can come up with here is to suggest that you ungroup the chart,
regroup each series, and animate those individually.

Wish I had something better for you.
