Adjust the layer slider crossfade transition time.

I’ve too have been looking for a way to control the duration of transitions between slides (not layers). I don’t see a way of doing this in the interface. Is there a configuration file I need to adjust. Like koala, I prefer slow, smooth transitions between images.

I don’t see Josue’s suggestion, where he says: ‘Try playing with this option:’
(For me, when I logged-in, there’s nothing showing.)

I’d welcome any suggestions.

Thanks

Thanks Josue

There is certainly a huge choice of transitions, but I typically prefer a simple distraction-free crossfade (No. 5). So given the complexity of what else is on offer it makes it all the more surprising that the developers haven’t made transition timing more readily adjustable.

At first, the Transition Builder appears to be limited too – but you’re right, this is where the solution lies.

For anyone else who likes nice, slow image fades, don’t be put-off by the Transition Builder only appearing to offer sliding, turning or directional tiled transitions. Persevere and create and save your own Custom Transitions.

Here are a few tips:

Set Rows and Columns to 1 (to give you one big tile).

Adjust the Duration to suit. (For example, I’ve saved options for 3, 5 and 10 second fades.)

Experiment with the other settings to get what you want.

Remember to name and save your custom settings

Once you’ve created your new transition, go to your slide and apply it.

Note: Although there is an option to apply this transition to all your slides, it didn’t work successfully for me – as it didn’t remove the slide’s previous setting. If that happens to you too, go into each slide individually and manually uncheck the old transition selection and ensure the new one remains checked.

Save your changes and you should find they work okay.
