Problem making video

How to get transitions berween scenes working correctly. Whilst in the video editor (2.5)
I select scenes using the ’ current scene’ command. In the right hand drop dowm menu I have ‘auto’ selected. The scenes do not transition, but merely go from frame to frame. I am clearly missing something here (as this worked in the previous version), and would very much appreciate some guidance. Many thanks for any help.

Hi,

Try to move to next scene you want first, and then click the icon to creat a new frame.

Many thanks for your prompt reply. Your inctruction, of course, worked beautifully, and I am now able to create videos as required.
Having spent many hours trawling the internet, and the official manual without finding any mention of this simple instruction, I am left wondering why?
However, all is well, and I am grateful for your help. Thank you.
