MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / September 2006Slide Transitions in PowerPoint 2007 Beta 2
Regarding PowerPoint 2007 Beta 2: No matter what transition you choose for your slides, the slideshow plays as if there were no transitions. Audio transitions work. It is the VISUAL transitions that don't. They work here. Do you have a specific scenario and transition in which that didn't happen? Where you using an existing or a new presentation?

You can get my email address from my website. It actually doesn't matter whether you are using a German version or not. In Office 2007, the underlying program is identical for all languages. The only difference is really the text shown to you on the screen, keyboard shortcuts and other localized UI elements. Patrick Schmid -------------- http://pschmid.net > > They work here.

[quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > The transitions between the slides don't work > My PowerPoint is an German version Hi, Just want to add that I see the same problem, I get no slide transitions to work, not in old presentations nor in new presentations. I can select a slide transition, I see the preview, but when I start the show, no transition. I am very interested to learn about a solution.

Therefore go into Start, Run and type msinfo32. Then in the file menu, choose Save. Save the file somewhere where you can find it (prob. will take 10-15 mins to create report & save). Then zip it up together with the presentation and email it to me. I'll take a look. If I can see the transitions fine, I'll submit the presentation plus the info about your computer configuration to Microsoft so that they can take a look and see what is going on here. You can get my email address from my website.

I have a laptop (freshly formatted) and a desktop with a heap of crap on it.... and the transitions dont work on either machine.

At this point, I'd see wait till the technical refresh for Beta 2 is released and try it with that. If it still doesn't work, email me directly. I don't know when the refresh will be released, but it can't be that far away anymore. Patrick Schmid -------------- http://pschmid.net > Any luck solving this problem? I am experiencing the same.

Do you have an COM add-in's installed for PowerPoint? 1) Click "File" button and choose "PowerPoint Options" 2) Click "Add-Ins" 3) Choose to Manage: "COM Add-ins" (from bottom of dialog) and click the "Go..." button. Are any add-in's listed in the dialog that appears? If so: 1) Try disabling them one by one until you get slide transitions to work 2) If disabling them doesn't solve the problem, try removing them one by one until you can get transitions to work. Please let us know which add-ins you had installed originally and which one(s) needed to be disabled/removed before you were able to get slide transitions to work. NOTE: There's a possibility that nearly every COM add-in will trigger this behavior (it's a bug in Beta 2 for PowerPoint), but we're still looking for confirmation from beta testers and preview users. Thanks, John Langhans [MSFT] According to John Langhans´s message, I disabled the "Google Desktop Search" COM Add-in, closed and reopened Powerpoint and the problem didn´t occur anymore. Thanks John. Helped a lot! > Hello Wayne, > [quoted text clipped - 31 lines] > > John Langhans [MSFT] Disabling "Google Desktop Search" also cleared the problem for me.

Thanks, Luciano. > Hello Wayne, > [quoted text clipped - 31 lines] > > John Langhans [MSFT] I checked and found one add-in. Google Desktop Add-in. After disabling, the feature now works. My productivity in PPT has been reduced to by about 70% with 2006. I have been working with office since its release in the early 90's Too much change without thinking about the user. Thanks Will J > Hello Wayne, > [quoted text clipped - 31 lines] > > John Langhans [MSFT] Excellent!!! I didn't have google desktop search, but I had another complement installed... The problem is fix now...but With the google desktop complement.... is Microsoft "Created" this bug so the people will use his destop search which will be in Vista instead of the google one??? I would bet on this.... No need for conspiracy theories. It just happens to be a bug with ALL COM add-ins. Hopefully Microsoft can fix it for RTM.
