Transitions

When navigating a presentation, we transition between slides by animating them from right to left by default. This transition can be changed by setting the transition config option to a valid transition style. Transitions can also be overridden for a specific slide using the data-transition attribute.

<section data-transition="zoom">
  <h2>This slide will override the presentation transition and zoom!</h2>
</section>

<section data-transition-speed="fast">
  <h2>Choose from three transition speeds: default, fast or slow!</h2>
</section>

Styles

This is a complete list of all available transition styles. They work for both slides and slide backgrounds.

Name	Effect
none	Switch backgrounds instantly
fade	Cross fade — default for background transitions
slide	Slide between backgrounds — default for slide transitions
convex	Slide at a convex angle
concave	Slide at a concave angle
zoom	Scale the incoming slide up so it grows in from the center of the screen

Separate In-Out Transitions

You can also use different in and out transitions for the same slide by appending -in or -out to the transition name.

<section data-transition="slide">
    The train goes on …
</section>
<section data-transition="slide">
    and on …
</section>
<section data-transition="slide-in fade-out">
    and stops.
</section>
<section data-transition="fade-in slide-out">
    (Passengers entering and leaving)
</section>
<section data-transition="slide">
    And it starts again.
</section>

The train goes on …

Background Transitions

We transition between slide backgrounds using a cross fade by default. This can be changed on a global level or overridden for specific slides. To change background transitions for all slides, use the backgroundTransition config option.

Reveal.initialize({
  backgroundTransition: 'slide'
});

Alternatively you can use the data-background-transition attribute on any <section> to override that specific transition.
