presentation.Slides[0].SlideShowTransition.Type = TransitionType.Morph;

You can specify the Morph Type; in this example, we use ‘ByWord’.

((IMorphTransition)presentation.Slides[0].SlideShowTransition.Value).MorphType = TransitionMorphType.ByWord;

Step 4: Save the Presentation

Once you have set the Transition Morph Type, save the modified presentation to a new file.
