Smooth Dissolve between Slides

Does anyone know if Oo has a smooth Dissolve Transition between slides in 
Presentation (Impress)?  So far, I've only seen the checkerboard, whereas 
Powerpoint has a lovely 'normal' dissolve where one photo just dissolves into 
the next like in a movie.

I haven't found it in Version 1.1 and I don't think it's in Version 2.  Still 
only the checkerboard.

Project slideshow only, while notes remain on laptop

Still comparing with Powerpoint, there's a neat feature there that allows the 
user to view on their laptop all the notes and directions while the projected 
image is just the presentation content (which is all you want the audience to 
see).  I've read (and tried) making the laptop's Open Office the no. 2 view and 
the projected image the no. 1, but this just completely reverses the procedure. 
 Ideally, we want the laptop screen to remain the no. 1 and the projected image 
no. 2.  The audience should never see what you're doing, only what you want 
them to see.

Most movie-editing packages come with this feature as standard.  I'd love to 
see it in Oo's Presentation!

Thanks in advance for any suggestions,

Seamus Byrne.
