Hello,

I am new to Photoshop Elements 15 and am looking to make a slideshow. I understand how to make a basic slideshow with the themes, but I would like to be able to vary how long each slide is shown, and have different transition effects for each slide.

How can I customize this? I see that there were easy way on previous versions of Elements, but I am having difficulty finding the customize tool on 15.

Thank you for your help!

There should be a way to make a simple, basic slideshow. No music and slides don't move around on the screen. Slide 1, after a predetermined number of seconds go to slide 2. In Photoshop I can change a frown to a smile. But in Organizer I can't even make a basic slideshow.

This is only somewhat related, yet directly as well.  I have a large slideshow that is having some images randomly cropped.  In all my searching I have seen earlier versions with dialogue boxes to allow to "fill frame proportionately", but cannot seem to find that option in Elements 13?  Is i there and I am missing it?  Does 15 allow this option?  Cutting the heads off on some images seems to be a big flaw, and there are several posts regarding that.

Hi,

The Slideshow in PSE 15 does not provide the customization options you have mentioned.

Thanks,

Hi Ankit,

Thank you for your prompt response.

That is very disappointing as I find that the current slideshow can get monotonous without varying the duration and transition rate of the slides.

I see that Elements 12 has these features that I'm looking for. I currently have the trial version of Elements 15. Do you think it would be possible to uninstall it and download a trial version of Elements 12 instead?

Thank you for your help!

Yes, you can download the trial version of Elements 12 but your current version 15 catalog can not be downgraded back to Elements 12 catalog, so you will have to create a new catalog for using with Elements 12.

Also, only the latest version of elements i.e, Elements 15 is up for sale.

Thanks,
