Move a cut and transition together

You can adjust the location of the cut in the Effect Controls panel. Moving the cut line changes the In and Out points of the clips, but does not
affect the length of the movie. As you move the cut, the transition moves with it.

You can’t move the cut beyond the end of a clip. If both clips do not have trimmed frames extending beyond the cut, you cannot reposition

the cut.

1. Double-click the transition in a Timeline panel to open the Effect Controls panel.

2. If the Effect Controls time ruler is not visible, click the Show/Hide Timeline View button

in the Effect Controls panel. If necessary, widen

the panel to make this button visible and active.

3. In the Effect Controls time ruler, position the pointer over the transition, placing it on the thin vertical line that marks the cut. The pointer

changes from the Slide Transition icon

to the Ripple Edit icon

.

4. Drag the cut as desired. (You can’t move the cut beyond either end of the clip.)

Change transition duration

You can edit a transition’s duration in either a Timeline panel or the Effect Controls panel. The default duration for transitions is initially set to 1
second.

Lengthening a transition’s duration requires that one or both clips have enough trimmed frames to accommodate a longer transition. (See Clip
handles and transitions.)

Change transition duration in a Timeline panel

In a Timeline panel, position the pointer over the end of the transition until the Trim-In icon

or the Trim-Out icon

appears; then drag.

Change transition duration in the Effect Controls panel

1. Double-click the transition in a Timeline panel to open the Effect Controls panel.

2. Do one of the following:

In the Effect Controls time ruler, position the pointer over the transition until the Trim-In icon

or the Trim-Out icon

appears; then

drag. (If the Effect Controls time ruler is not visible, click the Show/Hide Timeline View button in the Effect Controls panel. If
necessary, widen the panel to make this button visible and active.)

Drag the Duration value, or select it and type a new value. How the transition changes length depends on the alignment option currently
selected:

The transition’s start and end points move equally in opposite directions.

Only the end of the transition moves.

Only the beginning of the transition moves.
