• I have used the search tool and did not find an issue describing my bug.

Operating System

Windows 10 / 8.1 / 7

Version information

version 8.2.2.22 (x64 msi)

Expected Behavior

Nothing. The morph transition should do nothing when transitioning between two identical slides

Actual Behavior

The first letter of a word that has white space to its left disappears for the duration of the transition

Reproduction Steps

1. Create a new presentation
2. Change the title slide to a blank slide layout
3. Copy the following and paste it into the slide:

Some text,
  and some more text

5. Copy the slide on the "slides" sidebar and paste it to create a duplicate
6. Change the duplicate's transition to Morph and set its Parameter to either Letters or Words
7. Press the preview or start slideshow button and trigger the transition animation
