Advanced Animation Timeline

Why is the Advanced Animation Timeline feature still not available in the latest version of Powerpoint for Mac? It's been available for PC s since 2016.

    I enjoy working with PowerPoint for Mac significantly more today than I did prior to 2016. The missing advanced timeline for animations is a significant hindrance to the work I do. I'm glad to have it in the Windows version, but it truly feels that it is something that should be available by now, on the Mac side of things. I show complex animations to clients who are impressed by the ability of PowerPoint, then they lose interest when they find the timeline is not available to them in the Mac version. It's rather disheartening to show people what an application CAN do, just not the one they have.

    Purchasing Microsoft Office for Mac has been one of the biggest mistakes of my adult life. I can't think of anything more disappointing that I actively did. maybe purchasing a Mac was a close second. but that is mostly because Microsoft Office for Mac is so terrible. If you are reading this and you are a developer you should feel very bad about how this works. I would recommend just discontinuing the product.

    The lack of an advanced animation timeline and the 60 second limit on animation delays makes it impossible to automate complex animations that last more than 60 seconds. This request has been open for several years with no action or even a response. What gives?

    Advanced Animation Timeline. Add it, please. We have alternative programs, but PPT should have this.

    Yes, PLEASE add the Advanced Animation Timeline for the Mac version as it's only available for Windows & highly useful.

    It's very difficult to animate without a graphical view of when objects animate across time, relative to each other. All motion graphics use it. (I really wish you'd add keystones like In After Effects.)

    We've been expecting Advanced Animation Timeline for YEARS now. Please include this soon in an upcoming release.

    Please add. Clearly there's a demand for it, as well as some parity for Mac users.

    Would be cool though they should fix the current animation issues first. It is so buggy and jittery to play animations on powerpoint mac...
