If you click the down-arrow on the right side of any transition button, you can select a
new transition to assign to that button. In the image below, Swoop has been assigned
to the first transition button:
Transition Time
The duration of the transition is controlled by clicking the duration icon:
This button controls the duration of all transitions, except for Cut which is immediate.
For example, if you click the Duration button and select Slow from the drop-down
menu, the button changes to display a turtle icon.
Additionally, if Slowest is selected a bug is displayed, and if Fast is selected a rabbit is
displayed.
Go Button
The Go button (or you can press the Ctrl+G keys) takes any changes you have made and
makes them Live using the selected transition and duration. However, the Go button
only becomes important when you have AutoLive turned off. This is because when
AutoLive is on, every time you click a shot the Go action is automatically executed for
you. (See AutoLive.)
Tool Bar
The Toolbar provides a way to open lives sources, file sources, the Desktop Presenter
program, shot graphics, shot audio, and shot templates.
