Description Martin Tlustos 2015-01-09 09:52:59 UTC
I know this would probably be a major change, but it would be great to be able to save my specific settings to a animation, so I could reuse it on another object. It could be done like a hierarchical style list (similar to paragraph styles), where my custom settings all depend on the specific built-in animation.

Right now it is very cumbersome to apply the same specific settings to a large amount of objects. For example, I want 30 images to pop up and disappear right after each other with a delay of 0,20 seconds each. For this I have to right-click on each and every object and change settings. It would be much nicer to create a "animation style" and then apply it to all the objects with just one click.

Hi Martin,

Sounds like a smart idea and nice enhancement to me. 

I've no idea of the technical/usability implications. e.g. when one wants to apply an animation that suits a small object on a huge one :)
But lets see.

Set to new & cheers,
Cor

I really do need this functionality, since it is counter-productive to apply the same animation style to each and every object out there on the scene.

An awesome request that will help boost the productivity of our daily LO usage.
Thank you all

This old request could benefit from the design team defining something more concrete as a proposal for implementation.

We have bug 88938 about copy/paste animation settings, bug 54126 suggests to do the trick per multi-selection, and bug 115902 asks to configure animation properties independently from the object but concludes to remember the last setting (there should be similar tickets).
