In the above example, you can drag the white circle in the Viewer (an onscreen control) to
position the circle wipe’s center and the square to set the border width (in this case, its softness).
The Transition inspector includes a setting for the circle wipe’s aspect ratio and edge treatment
(including the border color if you choose a hard edge).
Additionally, many transitions have parameters that you can animate using keyframes. For
example, you could have the center of the Circle transition move as you play the clip.
For more information on adjusting audio crossfades in the Transition inspector, see Fade audio in
or out on page 176.
Adjust transitions with multiple images
Several transitions include areas that are filled with still images from the clips on either side
of the transition. For example, this is the Pan Far Right transition (one of the Bulletin Board
transitions).
This image is set by handle
number 4 in the Timeline.
The areas are numbered and correlate to numbered points around the transition in the Timeline.
Adjust transitions with numbered points
1 Select the transition with numbered points in the Timeline.
2 Move the playhead over the transition until you see an area with the same number as one of the
numbered handles in the Timeline.
3 Drag the numbered handle to select the image to fill the area.
4 Continue until you have selected images for all of the areas.
