Description Adam Machanic 2025-09-01 22:11:24 UTC 
Impress locks up and needs to be force killed under Windows when I try to set a smooth fade slide transition.

Repro:

- Create a new blank slide deck
- Add a second slide
- Select both slides
- Under the Slide menu, select Slide Transition
- Select Fade
- Under the Through Mode dropdown, select "Smoothly"

This causes Impress on this end to lock and become unresponsive until I kill it using Task Scheduler.

Actually it doesn't even need two slides - the same thing happens if you just create a new blank slide deck, go straight to Slide Transition, and then make the same "Fade Smoothly" selection listed below.
