Transitions Pane

Click the Transitions button to open the Transitions pane. You can add transitions to

smoothly change scenes in your movie.

Font controls: Choose a font, then move the slider left or right to adjust the font size. Choose a

font color using the color box.

Over black: Select this option to make the title appear over a black video clip instead of one of

your video clips. (You can also change the color of the title clip by double-clicking it in the clip

viewer.)

QT Margins: Select this option if you plan to export the movie to QuickTime. This option adjusts

the size of the text to display within the TV safe area of the screen. Deselect it if you want to

show the movie on a television screen.

Text fields: Type your text in these fields. If the style you choose allows multiple lines of text, use

the plus and minus buttons to add or remove additional lines.

Preview: Click to see how the transition will look in the preview monitor.

Update: Click to apply changes to a transition already in a movie.

Apply: Click to apply the transition to a selected transition in your movie. You can also select

and change multiple transitions all at once.

Arrow buttons: For some transitions, you can click an arrow button to set the direction you

want the transition to move. For example, a transition might “push” a scene from right to left

or left to right.
