@Jay,

Yes this would probably improve UX to split transition types from sub-types
into a dropdown.

The transition types and sub-types are defined in
http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/offapi/com/sun/star/animations/TransitionType.idl
http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/offapi/com/sun/star/animations/TransitionSubType.idl

And against those we have
http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/slideshow/source/engine/transitions/transitionfactorytab.cxx
http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/slideshow/source/engine/transitions/slidetransitionfactory.cxx

With a smattering of UI/XCU and XML definitions.

Unfortunately, looking at transitionfactorytab.cxx, we merge both the
Transition type and sub-type when defining the transition effect--calling
against that listing.  So while they can be identified in the list, a number of
transitions in the list are not implemented and indexing could be painful. So,
not sure they can be efficiently split into a type and a sub-type for a listbox
and dropdown UI widgets. Getting it done would depend on how much work it
requires.

Still I think it is a good UI enhancement.
