Attributes

Description

origin (Origin)

Specifies what the origin of the motion path is relative to such as the layout of the slide, or the parent.

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_TLAnimateMotionBehaviorOrigin simple type (§4.8.29).

path (Path)

Specifies the path primitive followed by coordinates for the animation motion. The allowed values that are understood within a path are as follows:

M = move to, L = line to, C = curve to, Z=close loop, E=end

UPPERCASE = absolute coords, lowercase = relative coords

Thus total allowed set = {M,L,C,Z,E,m,l,c,z,e)

[Example: The following string is a sample path.

path: “M 0 0 L 1 1 c 1 2 3 4 4 4 Z”

end example]

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the XML Schema string datatype.

pathEditMode (Path Edit Mode)

This attribute specifies how the motion path moves when the target element is moved.

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_TLAnimateMotionPathEditMode simple type (§4.8.30).

ptsTypes (Points Types)

This attribute describes the type of the points in the path attribute. The allowed values that are understood for the ptsTypes attribute are as follows:

A = Auto, F = Corner, T = Straight, S = Smooth

UPPERCASE = Straight Line follows point, lowercase = curve follows point.

Thus, the total allowed set = {A,F,T,S,a,f,t,s}

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the XML Schema string datatype.

rAng (Relative Angle)

The attribute describes the relative angle of the motion path.

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_Angle simple type (§5.1.12.3).
