Custom Parameters
Many transitions have additional parameters that you can use to further customize
their effect. These parameters appear below the controls for the properties and may
include such visual effects as the center point of the effect, the width of the transition
border, and the color and feathering of this border. More complex transitions have
more elaborate effects.
Displaying Clips in the Transition Editor
The way clips are displayed in the Transition Editor depends on the current thumbnail
display setting for the sequence. (For information on changing this display in the
sequence settings, see Volume IV, Chapter 27, “Sequence Settings and Presets.”) You can
also increase or decrease the scale of the ruler in the Transition Editor by zooming in or
out.
