*In this situation for versions 11 to 2019, Quick workspace does not have available to it all the transitions found in the Expert workspace. Specifically, Quick does not includes the NewBlue Motion Blends Elements video transitions - Roll, Shake, Shear, Smear, Spin, Wave, and Zoom - available in the Expert workspace. The Quick workspace of 11 to 2019 has a Zoom video transition, but it did not present as the same Zoom video transition found in the Expert workspace in the NewBlue Motion Blend Elements video transitions collection.
**My Photoshop Elements 2019/Premiere Elements 2019 first hand/first look using the tryouts has ended, and I have not yet moved to purchase the 2019 version; consequently, I do not have a purchased 2019 to confirm this topic with a purchased 2019. It is assumed that the transitions situation is the same for purchased 2019 as for the 2019 tryout and the purchased 2018.
