Step three: Add transitions
In this step, you add transitions. A transition is the change you see between
one photo and the next in a slideshow.
Tip: You can also apply a transition theme, which applies transitions
of the selected style between all items in your production. For more
information, see the VideoWave Help file.
To add transitions:
1 In the Tools area, click Show Effect Selector.
2 Click Transitions.
The Transitions view appears, displaying thumbnails of the transitions
you can use.
3 Optional: To preview a transition, click Play in the lower right corner
of the thumbnail.
4 From the Effect Selector, drag any transition to an empty transition
panel between two video clips in the Production Editor.
Add as many transitions as you like.
5 To set the amount of time for which the transition will play, follow
these steps:
a Select the transition and, on the Production Editor toolbar, click
Trim.
b In the Duration text box, enter the number of seconds you want
the transition to last. (One second is generally enough.)
c To apply this duration to all transitions you have added to your
slideshow or movie, select Apply to all.
d Click OK.
6 Continue with Step four: Preview your production.
