   Scroll to the specific page in your multi-page design where you want the transition effect to begin.

3. Click on the Page Itself or the Timeline
   Hover over the page and click the small “Transitions” icon that appears between two pages in the page timeline at the bottom or sidebar.

   A panel will open with transition options such as Dissolve, Slide, Circle Wipe, Line Wipe, or Match & Move. Click on the one you prefer.

Common Pitfalls and How to Avoid Them

1. Not Seeing the Transition Option
   Transitions are only available for multi-page designs such as presentations, videos, and slides. They won’t appear in single-page documents.

2. Transitions Not Working on Elements
   Canva transitions are for entire pages. If you want movement on individual elements, use animations instead of transitions.

3. Applying to One Page Only by Mistake
   If you want a uniform effect, don’t forget to use the “Apply to all pages” button.

4. Overusing Transitions
   Too many transitions or too many styles can make your design look inconsistent. Stick to one or two styles for a smoother experience.

5. Transition Speed Too Fast or Too Slow
   Make sure the duration fits the flow of your content. Use preview mode to test and adjust as needed.
