object’s transition.
3. To change the T RANSITION T YPE property, select the properties text
box and click the button that appears.
4. Select the desired transition style and its parameters are added to
the Transition section in the Properties window.
Cut The C UT transition allows the object to immediately appear or disappear from the
scene when the keyframe is encountered on the timeline. There are no parameters
for this property.
Fade or Dissolve When the V ISIBLE animated property is enabled, the F ADE and D ISSOLVE transition
styles introduce the object into the scene by gradually increasing the object’s
opacity from completely transparent to opaque.
When the V
ISIBLE animated property is disabled, the F ADE and D ISSOLVE transition
styles removes the object from the scene by gradually decreasing the object’s
opacity from opaque to completely transparent.
