hm... would you find this informative?
$> impressive -l ; man impressive | grep -4 'transition.*enable'
Welcome to Impressive version 0.10.2
Available transitions:
* Crossfade - simple crossfade
None - no transition
PagePeel - an unrealistic, but nice page peel effect
PageTurn - another page peel effect, slower but more realistic than
PagePeel
SlideDown - Slide downwards
SlideLeft - Slide to the left
SlideRight - Slide to the right
SlideUp - Slide upwards
SpinOutIn - spins the current page out, and the next one in.
SpiralOutIn - flushes the current page away to have the next one overflow
SqueezeDown - Squeeze downwards
SqueezeLeft - Squeeze to the left
SqueezeRight - Squeeze to the right
SqueezeUp - Squeeze upwards
* WipeBlobs - wipe using nice "blob"-like patterns
* WipeCenterIn - wipe from the edges inwards
* WipeCenterOut - wipe from the center outwards
* WipeDown - wipe downwards
* WipeDownRight - wipe from the upper-left to the lower-right corner
* WipeLeft - wipe from right to left
* WipeRight - wipe from left to right
* WipeUp - wipe upwards
* WipeUpLeft - wipe from the lower-right to the upper-left corner
ZoomOutIn - zooms the current page out, and the next one in.
(transitions with * are enabled by default)
-I <filename> or --script <filename>
Overrides automatic derivation of the info script filename and
specifies a script file directly.
-l or --listtrans
If this option is specified, Impressive writes a list of all
available transition classes to standard output and does not start a
presentation. Transitions that are enabled by default are marked with a
star (*) left of the class name.
-L <spec> or --layout <spec>
Specified the OSD layout. Read below for an explanation of this
option

Another useful variable, AvailableTransitions, contains a list of all
transition classes that may be used for randomly assigning transitions to pages
lacking the transition property. Thus, if you want to
exclude a certain transition (either because you don't like it or
because you want to have it exclusively on pages where you manually assigned it
using PageProps), you can write something like
AvailableTransitions.remove(WipeBlobs)
On the other side, it's possible to activate transitions that are not
enabled by default:
AvailableTransitions += [SlideUp, SlideDown]
Alternatively, you can completely overwrite AvailableTransitions to have
the same transition (or set of transitions) assigned to all pages:
AvailableTransitions = [Crossfade]
Not sure where manpage advises to modify anything -- just look into INFO
