Motion Path Flickering

The transition with a Fade in effect sometimes works, but is not guaranteed, even in the most recent version (this is an old thread). If you are using a motion path, try to have the start point set that way that the object is barely visible on starting the motion. 

You could also use the same advanced (or shared action) On enter for the slide, with another Delay command if you want the effect to start later than at the start frame.

Here we are in 2023 version 2019 and I'm still seeing the same issue. It would be great if Adobe could fix this issue.

I've tried to submit a bug to Adobe, but I'm taking to an InMoment page and have been unable to gain access.

I am seeing this flicker when using effects in two scenarios:

1. When I am sliding a white box off (I.e. exit effect: fade to right) to reveal an image or text in a layer below it, the object below the white box is visible for a split second before the white box covers it and then fades to the right. This only happens if you have your object on the first second of the timeline. Not a problem to move an object to begin two seconds in, but it's not possible if you are using PowerPoint.

2. When I am applying an effect using an action. In the example below, Click_Box_5 triggers the "Fly In from Left" effect for the text box labeled, door1. When I click Click_Box_5 in the published version, the text box, door1 pops on screen in it's final position before coming in from the left.

I did find that if I trigger another effect of a white box easing out to the right on a layer above, at the same time the door1 text is flying in, that it stops the flicker, but quite a time consuming work around when you have many of these click-to-reveals!
