User Manual

The Transitions Browser lets you choose different
transitions for creative effects
Methods of adding different transitions by drag and drop:
 To add a transition by dragging it from the Transitions Browser: Drag a video
transition from the Effects Library to an edit point in the Timeline so that it’s centered at,
ends at, or starts at the edit point. If there is no overlap between the heads and tails of
the two clips, you may not be able to add a transition where you want.
 To add a transition using the Transitions Browser’s contextual menu: Select one or
more edit points (one per track), then right-click a video transition in the Effects Library
and choose Add to Selected Edit Points. That transition will be added to every selected
edit point at once.
Editing and Removing Transitions
Once you’ve added a transition, you can edit it in a number of different ways to work best for
your program.
Methods of editing transitions:
 To change a transition’s duration: Drag the beginning or end of a transition in the
Timeline to be longer or shorter symmetrically about the current edit.
 To move a transition from one edit to another: You can drag a transition from its
current position to another edit point.
 To copy a transition from one edit to another: Select a transition, then option-drag it to
another edit point to add a duplicate transition.
 To change a transition’s type: Drag a different transition from the Transition Browser
onto the current one in the Timeline.
 To remove a transition: Select a transition in the Timeline and press the Delete key.
