# Add and edit transitions

Transitions are effects that alter the progression between slides. Photoshop Elements provides several transitions to choose from. You can adjust the duration of transitions individually or as a group. The transition pattern is indicated in the icon between slides. To apply changes to transitions in an entire slide show when you first create it, select the transitions in the storyboard and choose a transition type for them, or set options in Slide Show preferences.
