Animating point to point

Animating point to point
Wed, 28 Nov 2007 15:41:53 +090
Is there a way to animate an object in Presentations  so that it moves 
along a user defined path between two user defined points? e.g. the 
effect you would have if you had a road map as wall paper and moved a 
bitmap of a car along one of the roads to show where you went. It seems 
to be available in Power Point and is definitely available in Open 
Office (animate - freeform line) I don't want to use those packages 
though because I want Show on the Go or something similar which is not 
an option with them.

Pres doesn't have this as such .. but you can do it simply by using 
multiple slides (kind of like stop action film).

Thanks Joell.

I figured I could do it that way or by making my own animated GIF but 
was hoping for an easier solution. Maybe something for WP Office 14?????

Cheers
