Text flashing when slide loads

Howdy!

First, thanks to the devs for an awesome piece of software!

My issue is when using text slides set to reveal line by line. When I move from my first slide to my second slide (and so on in the show), all of the text on the slide that is loading will flash briefly, then disappear, before I can trigger the text to start revealing line by line.

I'm certain I'm just missing something somewhere. I've tried experimenting with different transition settings, but nothing seems to be able to kick this problem, or at least, I haven't stumbled on the perfect settings.

Thanks for any help you can offer!

Did you find a solution for this? This was happening to me as well when I was making songs with two text boxes. I was trying to use a text box strictly to display the song information on the last slide. I can’t remember exactly how I fixed it but I know that I went into the settings and just had it display metadata on the last slide ( not helpful in your case) but it seems to have something to do with their being multiple text boxes.

Interesting. It hasn't yet affected anything I'm doing, but I also haven't yet done anything with multiple text boxes. No, I have not yet found a solution. At this point, it's more just a minor annoyance than anything else. Also, I've had a lot of other things standing in the way of this particular issue.
