Edge selectors
Change the orientation or direction of the transition. Click an Edge selector arrow on the transition’s
thumbnail. For example, the Barn Doors transition can be oriented vertically or horizontally. A transition doesn’t have
Edge selectors if it has one orientation or if orientation isn’t applicable.
Start and End sliders
Set the percentage of the transition that is complete at the start and end of the transition. Hold
down the Shift key to move the start and end sliders together.
Show Actual Sources
Displays the starting and ending frames of the clips.
Border Width
Adjusts the width of the optional border on the transition. The default Border is None. Some transitions
do not have borders.
Border Color
Specifies the color of the transition’s border. Double-click the color swatch or use the eyedropper to
choose the color.
Reverse
Plays the transition backward. For example, the Clock Wipe transition plays counterclockwise.
Anti-Aliasing Quality
Adjusts the smoothness of the transition’s edges.
Custom
Changes settings specific to the transition. Most transitions don’t have custom settings.
