Add transitions to your project
There are several methods you can use to add transitions to your project. Once a transition is
added, you can adjust its parameters. You can also modify the transition effect in Motion.
Add a cross dissolve
1
Choose the Select tool from the Tools pop-up menu in the toolbar (shown below), and click the
edge of a clip (an edit point) in the Timeline.
One or both clip edges are highlighted.
Note: If you select a whole clip in the Timeline instead of just an edit point, transitions are added
at each end of the selected clip.
2
Choose Edit > Add Cross Dissolve (or press Command-T).
The cross dissolve is inserted using the “Apply transitions using” setting. For more information,
see
on page 206. If the video clip has attached audio, a crossfade transition
is applied to the audio.
