To preview an applied transition:

2. In the Transitions view of the Tasks panel, click the Edit

Transition button.

3. In the Properties view, click Show Timeline if the

Properties timeline is hidden (Figure 14).

4. To display the actual clips in the preview area, select

Show Actual Sources. (You may need to lengthen the

panel to locate this option.)

5. Do any of the following:

 To preview the transition in the Properties view,

click the Play button next to the thumbnail

(Figure 15). Click the button again to stop the

preview.

 To preview the transition in the Monitor panel,

move the current-time indicator (in either the

Timeline or the Properties view) to the left of the

transition, and then click the Play button in the

Monitor panel (Figure 16).

 To preview a particular frame of the transition in

the Monitor panel, drag the current-time indicator

(in either the Timeline or the Properties view) to the

desired frame.

Note: If you have a digital camcorder, you can probably

connect it to both your computer and TV to see real-time

previews on the TV monitor.
