Mike -
I don't actually know the answer to your question but, since the .odp
format is fully open and documented, and the .ppt* formats are not, it
might work better to have PowerPoint open a .odp file rather than have
Impress try to save a .ppt* file.
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/use-powerpoint-to-save-or-open-a-presentation-in-the-opendocument-presentation-odp-format-94805e84-1b09-4c98-a8b5-0da2a52242a0
has a table that 'shows which PowerPoint features are fully, partially,
or not at all supported in the OpenDocument Presentation (.odp) format'.
In particular, for Entrance/Exit animations it says 'Partially
supported': 'Animations that can't be supported by ODF are changed to an
Appear or Disappear animation'. This doesn't seem to be directly related
to your issue, since clearly your transition was working with a .odp
file, but it does suggest problems with at least some transitions.

Hi all - I had an odp file with dissolve transitions between slides.
On conversion to ppt (x?) the transitions were replaced with a
straight cut from one to the next.
Is this expected? Is the problem in the conversion? Or is there a way
to make sure this doesn't happen?
Thanks.
