the help file and manual covers this quite well ......

in HELP - look up "Transitions (Alt+7), Adding" for examples ....

Change the speed/duration of a transition

After you've added a transition to an event, you can easily adjust its duration, which will change the speed at which the transition occurs.

Adjusting a transition at the beginning or end of an event
Hover over the edge of the transition until the cursor is displayed as a .

Drag the edge of the transition to set its new length:



Adjusting a transition between two events
Drag either of the events to change the amount of overlap between them. The transition length is updated to match the overlapping area:



Right-click a track header and choose Expand Track Layers from the shortcut menu to reveal the A roll, B roll, and transition roll. In this view, sequential clips alternate between the A and B rolls, and the overlapping area between events is represented by the transition roll.



Add a transition progress envelope
Normally, a transition progresses from 0 to 100% in a linear fashion over the length of the transition. A transition progress envelope gives you complete control over a transition: you can hold, reverse, and repeat individual transitions.

Right-click a transition.

From the shortcut menu, choose Insert/Remove Envelope, and then choose Transition Progress from the submenu. An envelope is added to your transition.

Add points and adjust the fade curves as desired. For more information about envelope editing, click here.

In the following example, the transition starts, progresses to 50%, reverses direction, and then finishes.



Edit a transition
Click the icon on a transition to change the transition's settings.

Change to a different transition
Click the icon on an event to display the Transition dialog.

Drag a different transition from the Transitions window to the Transition dialog.

Remove a transition
Click the icon on an event to display the Transition dialog.

Click the Remove button to remove the current transition.

Convert a cut to a transition
When you have two video events that are inserted back-to-back with no transition (referred to as a cut), you can convert the cut to a transition by dragging a transition from the Transitions window and dropping it between the events.

You can also right-click between the two events, choose Transition from the shortcut menu, and choose a crossfade or transition type from the submenu.

One or both of the events will be extended so they overlap, allowing room for the transition. Use the Cut-to-overlap conversion settings on the Editing tab of the Preferences dialog to determine where the transition is placed.

There must be sufficient media on each side of the cut to accommodate the overlap time specified on the Editing tab of the Preferences dialog.

Convert a crossfade or transition to a cut
Click to position the cursor within the transition.

Hold Ctrl while pressing the / key on your numeric keypad.

The transition is converted to a cut, using the Cut-to-overlap conversion settings on the Editing tab of the Preferences dialog to determine where the cut occurs.
