I am using Shortcut Manager for PowerPoint to assign keyboard shortcuts to animations. I see OfficeOne Quick Animations category. What is it?

OfficeOne Quick Animations apply the animations to the selected shapes using the previously saved animation parameters. The usual animation parameter dialog box that you see while applying OfficeOne Animations will not be shown. This enables you to set the animation parameters once and apply them quickly to a set of shapes across the slides and presentations without having to set the those parameters each and every time.
