Could someone who has Photoshop Elements 4 do me a favor?

I need for you to get to the Slide Show Preferences dialog and let me know the contents of the drop down list for Transition. You will probably find the default setting of "Fade".

Photoshop Elements 6 now allows you to set random transitions across the Timeline in one operation. I am talking about different transitions for each still and the choice for a given still being chosen by the program in a random fashion.

A discussion has developed about whether this can be done in Photoshop Elements 4. One view is that is can in that Preference dialog. I suspect that the drop down list may contain transition styles, like Random Wipe or Random Bar, but I do not believe that it can set for Random across the board in one step as described.

I have not worked with Photoshop Elements 4 recently. Any info would be an aid in setting the record straight and letting me know if I have to start posting a notice of apologize for doubting.

Thanks in advance.

ATR,
All I have in the Transition drop-down is Random and none for PSE4.

Doug,

Thanks for your help.

I think that I have reconciled myself to accept that in Photoshop Elements 4 you CAN set for randomly placed transitions across the Slideshow Timeline when in the Slideshow Preference dialog before the Slideshow Editor opens.

So, an apology seemed appropriate and went in the mail.

I haven't used it in a while, but I seem to remember being able to choose either random or a single transition in the initial dialogue box - and then you can go in and change any transition after the fact.
