If View/sidebar is OFF(unticked), there  is no reaction when  Slideshow/Slide transition...... is clicked. 

When Slideshow/Slide transition is clicked ,and View/sidebar is OFF,

EITHER Slideshow/Slide transition needs to be greyed out PLUS a help file &/or comment  stating that to edit transitions, View/sidebar must be ON (ticked)

OR (better) View/sidebar is automatically ticked to ON and the Slide
 transition pane opens

I would add that this problem has stopped me using OO Presentation for years. No time, no help -> use powerpoint!

Workaround: Just leave the sidebar enabled, it only uses small space when minimized.
