Extension summary
TurboAnimator (https://turboanimator.com/) is a browser extension that lets you automate animation-related tasks in Google Slides with simple key combinations. You can quickly add and delete animations by pressing a few keys, and setup common animation presets. Please note that you cannot add entirely new types/custom/more animations (and no extension can do that) - this is simply for fast automation.
Why?
Using animations in Slides is sometimes tedious. There's no default way to change the default animation style and delay, and you need many clicks to add, delete, and modify animations.
My personal use-case: I always prefer a Fade In animation at 0.3 seconds delay, which previously requires 4 interactions per animation (Add Animation > Click on the animation type > Change to Fade In > Drag the timing slider exactly to 0.3 seconds). I created this extension to make my workflows much faster by just pressing "Alt+A" to add this animation.
As of this version you can:
- Add your preferred animation (chosen through the Options menu) with a single keypress (Alt+A by default)
- Delete the last animation in the list (Alt+Shift+D by default)
- Delete the last animation for the selected element (Alt+Shift+R by default)
- Use hotkeyed custom animations besides the default (e.g., Alt+Shift+1 by default for custom animation 1)
