Transfer manuscript between Nature journals

I submitted paper to Nature and recevied Decison Letter that rejects it.
Nature Neuroscience and Nature has another content style so I wonder if there is no problem sending it as a Nature style to Nature Neuroscience.
It’s always hard to change the manuscript style. =)
Thank you!

If you have received a letter from Nature that you don’t understand, please ask the person who sent you the letter to explain it. Manuscript submissions are confidential between the journal and the author.This forum is for general advice, guidance and discussion about submitting papers to Nature jouranals – it isn’t for advice about specific papers. This is explained on the forum main page.
Best wishes

Dear Maxine Clarke
Thanks for kind reply.
I’m sorry I didn’t know this forum was for general advice, not private submission. (I changed related sentence =))I just wondered if there is no problem using transfer service without changing manuscript style, because the required form of manuscript is quietly different between Nature journals.
Thank you

Dear Jihooon Oh
Yes, it is fine to use the manuscript transfer service link without changing the format of your submission. The editors of the second journal will make an evaluation and if they want to send your manuscript out for peer-review they will contact you and ask you to re-format it (if that is necessary in their opinion).
Best wishes
Maxine.
