Transition Tab in the Menu and Button Inspectors

The Transition tabs in the Menu and Button Inspectors are identical—the only difference
is that the Transition pop-up menu in the Button Inspector has a “Same as Menu” choice
that the Menu Inspector does not have.

Start thumbnail: Shows the video frame that a still transition will start from.

Transition thumbnail: Provides a preview of a still transition when you click the Preview

button, or a preview of a video transition when you click the Play button.

End thumbnail: Shows the video frame that a still transition will end with. This thumbnail

is empty in the Menu Inspector unless you have used the End pop-up menu to specify
an ending frame.

Transition: Choose the transition to use. In the Menu Inspector, this sets the default

transition for this menu, which you can override at each button.

not set: Disables transitions for this menu or button.

Standard Transition: Creates a transition clip based on the Standard Transitions

supplied with DVD Studio Pro.
