I found a kind of bug/problem with transitions creation.
I create a transition and customize it in the edit window.
If  I decide afterwards that I want to add variants, I select "multiple variants - list" (instead of single variant) in the dropdown list.
But my customization for my first variant in the edit window disappeared.
Fortunately I discovered that if I choose single variant again, it reappears.

By the way, I have an issue with this feature.
I would like to transform some of my old projects into transitions.
Is there a way to convert an image object into "slide1" or "slide2" objects ?
Otherwise, I have to start my projects from scratch.

Hi,

It is necessary to compress the old effect to 2 seconds in time, copy all its contents into O&A and paste it into a new transition. Then simply copy all the settings from the keyframes of the corresponding effect objects into Slide1 and Slide2. If necessary, the new Slide1 and Slide2 can be duplicated, if it was necessary in the old effect. Unnecessary effect objects are then deleted.

Hi Paul, thank you for your response. The problem with this technique is that it requires a lot of manipulations and is time consuming. I was hoping a replace method would exist because all keypoints applied to an image becoming « slide » object have to be recreated manually, right ?

By the way, did you notice latency when you work in the edit window of a transition (compared to OA window of a slide) ? On my computer, it is huge !

Yes, it is, but there is no problem with a certain replacement technique. I will look for a section of the lesson on this issue, although it is in Russian. :))

No, I did not notice such a delay in the transition editing window.

Thanks Paul.

An other question : is there a way to change time INSIDE the transition window to test the effect with an other duration ?

There is no such opportunity yet. You can check the transition with another time only after creating it. There is no reason to worry about it, if you set the time of the old effect (used to create the transition) for the created transition, you will not notice the difference. Igor promised in future versions to set the transition time arbitrarily, when creating it.

Thanks Paul !

On YouTube, I will activate the automatic translation, I think I should be able to globally understand even if I don’t speak a single word of russian (except Prost :lol:)

Hi Dom,

Copy existing image object and paste in Notepad.

1. Rename object name to Slide1 or Slide2

2. Add a new text line ReplaceWithEffectBuffer=1 if this image should become Slide1
and ReplaceWithEffectBuffer=2 for Slide2

Select the text and copy/paste back into editor of a custom transition.

Dom,

Let me know what graphics card installed in your computer?

Usually there should be no difference.

Do you observe this latency when you work with a simple transition (2 slide objects only) ?

Thank you Igor, for the help, everything works fine. Only an addition to your information is required, after the Slide1: Image object (in each row) we add ReplaceWithEffectBuffer = 1. And after the Slide2: Image object you need to add ReplaceWithEffectBuffer = 2 (also in each row).

Hi Igor, I could do it  with a project.
But I don't know why, there is an issue with the other one.
I did it several times with the same method than for the first project.

But even with the ReplaceWithEffectBuffer=1 line added (or ReplaceWithEffectBuffer=2) and renaming object name to Slide1 (or Slide2), PTE keeps the original images (instead of switching to slide objects).
I am sure there is something I made wrong but I have no idea what it could be.

Could you have a look please ?

I think you got it. The latency is only with multiple slide objects (18 by example)
See image attached for my graphic card.

Dom,

You correctly added ReplaceWithEffectBuffer=1 or ReplaceWithEffectBuffer=2

But you need to remove a duplicating line below for each slide object:

ReplaceWithEffectBuffer=0

Copy slide object, paste in Notepad, remove wrong text line, and copy/paste back to PTE transition editor.

Yes, that solves the problem !
Thank you so much Igor, you're the king.

I will be able to share with the community a new transition (issued from a very old project) that I had not the courage to rebuild from scratch.

by the way, Igor, don’t you consider It as a bug ?

And style now available on my website http://gumroad.com/thedom. Thank you again for your help.

Dom,

Glad that it works for you now! I hope to see new custom transitions :)

It's not bug, a storage is different for a single transition and multiple variants. But probably we'll improve it to avoid such confusion.

  • Igor changed the title to Bug with transition? [SOLVED]
