Example
The following example adds a bouncing animation to the first shape range on the first slide. This example assumes a shape range containing one or more shapes is selected on the first slide.
Sub AddBouncingAnimation()
Dim sldActive As Slide
Dim shpSelected As Shape
Set sldActive = ActiveWindow.Selection.SlideRange(1)
Set shpSelected = ActiveWindow.Selection.ShapeRange(1)
' Add a bouncing animation.
sldActive.TimeLine.MainSequence.AddEffect _
Shape:=shpSelected, effectId:=msoAnimEffectBounce
End Sub
