The following example adds a shape to a slide, adds an animation to the shape, and instructs the shape to begin the animation three seconds after it is clicked.

Sub AddShapeSetTiming()

    Dim effDiamond As Effect
    Dim shpRectangle As Shape

    Set shpRectangle = ActivePresentation.Slides(1).Shapes _
        .AddShape(Type:=msoShapeRectangle, Left:=100, _
        Top:=100, Width:=50, Height:=50)
    Set effDiamond = ActivePresentation.Slides(1).TimeLine.MainSequence _
        .AddEffect(Shape:=shpRectangle, effectId:=msoAnimEffectPathDiamond)

    With effDiamond.Timing
        .Duration = 5
        .TriggerShape = shpRectangle
        .TriggerType = msoAnimTriggerOnShapeClick
        .TriggerDelayTime = 3
    End With
