Transitions - Problem with Directions

[CorVdK]

The new transitions in version 12 work quite well, in my opinion.

But I have the impression that the transitions already present in previous versions don't respond well when clicking on the buttons.
The buttons are difficult to click, and the transition doesn't follow the desired direction on the screen.

Hi I tested the Advanced transitions and for me all it's OK 😃

Hi Cor,

Please let me know, do you see a wrong transition (from a different transition group) or an incorrect direction in the selected transition group? Does the problem appear in the small preview window, or do you see it after applying the transition to a project?

Usually, the Project Options show a preview of only one of several selected directions (3 in your screenshot). And the Slide Options shows a preview specifically for the selected direction/option.

Can you record a video of your screen to demonstrate the issue?

After activating a specific direction (clicking the button), for example to the right, the preview in project options shows a transition upward, left, or right, sometimes in the correct direction, sometimes not.

Also the selected button gets stuck sometimes (I can not always deselect it), hence probably sometimes multiple directions being executed incorrectly, similar to a kind of random memory sequence.

It's only the transitions with directional buttons that don't work well for me.

Additional test:
With version 11 opened separately, all transitions work perfectly.
With version 12 opened separately, all transitions work perfectly.

Apparently, I have a problem with the buttons not working properly when both versions are open on my computer.
(I did this to compare and verify functions for the translation.)

So the problem is solved when I don't start both versions at the same time.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Thanks for this addition. I don't recommend to run two PTE versions simultaneously with the transitions window open. Because both versions work with the same global storage of custom transitions, they interfere with each other.

Thank you very much Igor for the explanation.

Good to know.
