Morphing? Why not!
Those are all amazing, Nedim. The drink transitions were a great idea for creating the illusion everything is happning on the same slide. In my mind, I was mapping out the motion paths needed for something like that effect.
I've heard from a few folks of random behaviors. I haven't seen it yet but what you mentioned tracks with comments I've heard from a couple of users. If you can repro it or capture it with a short screencast, please do that and submit. Intermittent issues are tough to catch but I think there's something causing those issues. Thanks again for the terrific share this week.

Hi DavidAnderson ,
Thanks so much for your feedback on my samples - I appreciate it!
The issues I mentioned in my post are specifically related to my third example, "Zarmatt," and are tied to the behavior of morphed text boxes. Note that in the published example, the text boxes are not actual text boxes, they’ve been converted to high-res images. I decided to move away from using text boxes for reasons I explain further down.These inconsistencies are barely noticeable in Preview mode - unless you switch between slides multiple times. After doing that, you might notice that a random text box morphs correctly in one direction but not on return, or vice versa.
However, when published to the Web, these inconsistencies become much more noticeable. In many cases, the morph transition doesn’t work at all - it only affects the text box objects themselves, without animating the content as expected.
I’ve carefully checked all the object IDs to make sure they match across slides. Each of my text boxes contains different content (a title and body), uses different font sizes for title and content, and different font weights for each as well.
I’ve attached a basic sample that’s similar to the original project, which should help illustrate the issue. Other than that, I didn’t experience any issues with morphed objects such as pictures, shapes, shapes with picture fill, or even when creating a parallax effect using a single image across multiple slides.
