Modern Transitions (PowerPoint 2013+ "Exciting" Gallery)
This demo consists of three files that work together:
- transitions-modern.sh — Shell script that generates a 19-slide deck covering all 12 p15 preset tokens plus their
-outdirectional variants. - transitions-modern.pptx — The generated 19-slide deck.
- transitions-modern.md — This file. Documents each preset and the -in/-out direction modifier.
Regenerate
cd examples/ppt/transitions
bash transitions-modern.sh
# → transitions-modern.pptx
These transitions require PowerPoint 2013 or later. officecli writes each one inside an mc:AlternateContent wrapper with an inline fade fallback, so pre-2013 PowerPoint plays a graceful fade instead of nothing.

-out sets invX="1" invY="1" in the OOXML, visually flipping the direction on direction-sensitive presets. Symmetric presets (curtains, fracture, crush, prestige) accept the suffix but render unchanged.
Features: transition=wind-out, peelOff-out, pageCurlDouble-out, airplane-out, origami-out, fallOver-out
Complete Feature Coverage
| CLI token | UI name | Direction-sensitive? |
|---|---|---|
fallOver |
Fall Over | Yes |
drape |
Drape | Yes |
curtains |
Curtains | Symmetric |
wind |
Wind | Yes |
prestige |
Prestige | Symmetric |
fracture |
Fracture | Symmetric |
crush |
Crush | Symmetric |
peelOff |
Peel Off | Yes |
pageCurlDouble |
Page Curl (double) | Yes |
pageCurlSingle |
Page Curl (single) | Yes |
airplane |
Airplane | Yes |
origami |
Origami | Yes |
Direction modifier: -in (default, no invX/invY written) / -out (sets invX="1" invY="1"). Any other direction suffix is rejected:
Error: Transition 'fallOver' only accepts -in or -out (got '-up').
Token case: lowerCamelCase. Input is case-insensitive (PageCurlDouble and pagecurldouble both work); get returns the canonical lowerCamelCase form.
