Elements from the Same Media Source
By default, the transition effects defined manually in the Add/Modify Transition
Effect window are applied to the selected tracks and to the elements which are the
closest to the nowline.
Contiguous Elements from Different Media Sources
If you want to apply the transition effects to several contiguous transitions, you
need to place mark IN and mark OUT points to cover all the transitions on which to
apply the transitions effects and select the option Apply to all transitions
between mark IN and mark OUT.
Note
By default, the pre-existing transition effects will be preserved when you
define new transition effects between mark IN and a mark OUT points.
However, you can overwrite the pre-existing transition effects by
selecting the option Overwrite existing transitions effects when you
define the new effects.

The Tracks group box in the Add/Modify Transition Effects
window allows you to select the tracks on which the defined
transitions effects will be added in the timeline. The effects will
only be added to the tracks whose buttons are highlighted in
blue. The selection in this group box is reflected in the Timeline
Track Selection and vice versa.
For a quick selection from the keyboard, you can use the same
keyboard shortcuts as for the track selection in the Timeline
pane. See also section 4.1.8 ‘Timeline Track Selection Buttons’,
on page 54.
