Today I have noticed in all of my 360 projects which use the push transition that the slides no longer sync up during the animation.
In 360 full-screen preview the gap isn't clearly visible (sometimes it looks like the slides actually slightly overlap each other during the transition) but it is most noticeable when the project is opened in the browser, or when being viewed on a tablet or mobile device or in mobile preview as shown above.
Glad to hear you were able to work with Eloisa to confirm this issue, and we'll both keep you posted with any updates we hear as our team investigates.
I do not have "Push" transitions on my layers but there in the base layer. Is it intentional or a bug? I need the "Push" transition to achieve the effect but unable to do so. Please guide.
Thanks for reaching out! Just to confirm your question:
Is the lack of a Push transition on a slide layer intentional, or a bug?
There are a couple of transitions that are specifically on the base layer, but not on slide layers: Push and Uncover. So this is not a bug but built by design. You can read more about that in the user guide below:
Push and Uncover transitions were built specifically for slide-to-slide transitions rather than slide-to-layer transitions. Both of these transitions require another slide which is why they aren't available on layers.
A possible work around. I have had to move away from transitions as there is no control over them, similarly with the in/out animations. I find it easier- though more time consuming, to use motion paths for everything now, that way I have control over 'speed', as Articulate has for some reason set different fixed 'speed' settings for transitions compared to in/out animations.

Hi Rush,

Hope this helps!
Thanks Ren! This is weird for sure. Any idea why has this been designed like this?
Hi Rush!
Great questions!
Push and Uncover transitions were built specifically for slide-to-slide transitions rather than slide-to-layer transitions. Both of these transitions require another slide which is why they aren't available on layers.
Let me know if you any other questions!

Great news, everyone!
Update 10 for Storyline 3 is live: We fixed the issue where push transitions had gaps between slides in some cases.
