Hey there @RosemaryOrchard, @dfay and @tedsvo,
Wondering if your conversation can help me with Keynote as well.
I am a Bible teacher and I use Keynote for everything. My default most used slide animation is a 1 Second Dissolve. My second is Magic Move, but that is more infrequent (and more manual so I don’t care about automating it as much.
The default dissolve time for a Slide Dissolve is 1.5 seconds, which is too slow. I desperately wish I could set the default to 1 second SOMEWHERE in Keynote, but there is no way.
Is there a way to create a script that
- Applies the Dissolve Transition and
- Sets the Duration to 1.00 seconds?
I literally do this hundreds of times in a week, and yes I know that I can select them all and apply it, but then I would have to go through manually and undo all of the magic moves
The best scenario would be to write a script that applies the dissolve, sets it to 1 second and then I could take that script, create a macro in Keyboard Maestro, map it to a Stream Deck button and all would be right with the world.
Any help would be amazingly appreciated!
You have no idea what an incredibly time-saving help this would be for me.
Thanks so much
Bodie
