Align a transition using the Effect Controls panel
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 center of the transition until the Slide Transition icon appears; then drag the
transition as desired. For finer control, magnify the time ruler.
To center the transition on the cut line, in the Effect Controls panel, double-click the transition, and select Center At Cut.
To place all of the transition in the clip preceding the edit point, drag the transition to the left to align its end to the edit point.
Alternatively, in the Effect Controls panel, double-click the transition, and select End At Cut.
To place all of the transition in the clip following the edit point, drag the transition to the right to align its beginning to the edit point.
Alternatively, in the Effect Controls panel, double-click the transition, and select Start At Cut.
To place unequal portions of the transition in each clip, drag the transition slightly left or right. For finer control, zoom in on the time ruler.

You can also choose an option from the Alignment menu in the Effect Controls panel. Custom Start appears as an option in the
Alignment field only when you drag the transition to a custom location over the cut.
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.
Note: 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.
