Reverse/change transition on Previous button
Hi all,
Is is possible to have different ("opposite") slide transitions when users move forward and back through the slides? I'd like to use the Uncover Left transition between slides when clicking Next, but it looks very confusing having the same transition when clicking Previous as the slides appear to still be moving ahead. Ideally I'd like to be able to change the "back" transition to Cover Right to make it look like the slides are reversing back.
Any suggestions welcome! Cheers!

There is no easy way to do this, the only achievable way I can think of is to have two slide decks and manually set the previous button, this will break the menu functionality though.

Thanks Phil - would you mind clarifying what you mean about having two slide decks?
Cheers Leslie, will do!

You duplicate your slides and have one two slides each with a different transition.

Not an option

Ah, right. Thanks Phil - I see what you mean about breaking the menu functionality though! Might have to rethink my transitions as my project is quite long - looks like a lot of work to achieve a relatively minor visual effect. At least a good ol' fade will work in both directions! :P
Glad Phil was able to help you out here Erin! Thanks for the update.

I also would like to make this effect and there is no way. Should be possible to choose also a trigger for the transition. It was not helpfull at all.. If a previous more then two slides the transition would change to the other again. Maybe for the next update..

I have a forward-moving timeline, using the push transition, which looks great moving forward! But when using the previous button it looks quite ridiculous, without being able to reverse the transition!

Absolutely agree. I love this transition but don't like the look of it when users click the previous button.
