This needs fixing asap!

It would be useful to have the option to control which text enlivens first. Once in a while, I utilize more modest content to sandwich bigger content, the bigger content brings the primary point of convergence of the post. In any case, the enormous content ALWAYS invigorates first, which isn't generally alluring.

An animation's order. Timing. Animation on or off, for selected text/photo.

Agreed, this is very confusing

Control the text animation sequence and speed

I would also very much enjoy this feature. The way the feature works currently, the end of the sentence is appearing before the beginning, and unfortunately the meaning is lost.

I absolutely agree. I am having the same challenge. Clients complain a lot that the end of a sentence shows up before the beginning and theres no control over the order. Also why cant we animate both photo and text on same scene.......its either photo or text.

100% agree with the original post.

It is frustrating not being able to control which text box animates first, or which size text goes first, or the general order or animation.

PLEASE FIX THIS!

Thank you.

I could not agree more! The ability to choose order of text animation is key!

Why not Change the playing order in a desktop version of PowerPoint? you can also Change the playing order in PowerPoint for the web. Animation is vast field you have to up to date with every Animating tools and news.

So my workaround is you have to resize/scale the text box that is animating first until it’s just small enough so the other text box animates first...total hassle and waste of time, but until they fix it, this does help some. 👍🏼

What I don’t understand is even if I delete a text block, animate the remaining text block then add the second block, the second block still animate first.

C’mon Adobe!

Would be amazing to have a way to animate any single text, icon, image, sticker, logo ecc, and give them a different priority and different effect.

I like to see changes in animation control in Animate option, please add more animations on images and multiple words.
Thanks

I was just about to suggest this idea myself!

I tried to order the animation using the Order Tab but that didn't work and there didn't seem to be an available solution. After a quick search I found this Community blog. So SIZE DOES MATTER. Too bad for that. Emphasis should matter.

Woah! Can’t believe this isn’t fixed yet

Allow users to animate one box of text and have others stay stationary.

2019 is over :-). More animation control (for text) coming soon?
