A
Transitions List
This appendix shows the icons assigned to each MXPro transition, and identifies them
by number.
Some transition descriptions use special terms and abbreviations to describe how the
transitions work.
(A) — The CURRENT source: the one on the screen before the transition begins.
(B) — The NEXT source: the one on the screen after the transition finishes.
Dissolve — One image fades away as another fades in.
Wipe — A simple window or boundary that reveals the underlying video. The video
image neither moves nor changes size.
Slide — Leaves the video full size but the picture moves with the transition.
Comp, Exp — (Compress, Expand) The video resizes to fit the window. Normally, the
entire picture scales to fill the window.
H, V — (Horizontal, Vertical) These refer to the direction in which the transition moves.
For example, a V wipe is a horizontal line that moves vertically up or down the screen.
When the effect runs in the forward (non-reversed) direction, vertical transitions move
down the screen and horizontal transitions move from left to right, unless otherwise
indicated.
CW, CCW — ClockWise and CounterClockWise movement.
L, R, Ctr, T, B — Left, Right, Center, Top, and Bottom, respectively.
TLC, TRC — Top Left Corner and Top Right Corner, respectively.
BLC, BRC — Bottom Left Corner and Bottom Right Corner, respectively.
“ ; ” — Divides multi-step transitions. “ / ” indicates two actions that occur simulta-
neously.
* — The transition always uses a fixed direction when performed from frozen picture.
They are not affected by the REVERSE button.
# — The transition operates differently when performed from a frozen picture. Simpler
effects are substituted automatically.
