Changing the delay, duration, and speed of a transition

The Transition pane lets you change the delay and duration of a transition. You can use the graphical controls in the timeline view or use the fields within the panel.

Click the Inherit Settings graphic to toggle between showing and hiding inherited objects within the results. Use the slider next to Inherit Settings to adjust the timeline zoom.

To change the delay before the transition starts:

  1. Select the object with the transition you want to change either by clicking in the Title Explorer, within the work area, or from the list in the Transitions pane. The transition is highlighted in the Transition pane.

  2. To use the graphical controls to change the delay, either click the left red selector on the timeline or click the left-edge of the transition item in the appropriate row in the table (indicated by the double-arrow cursor ) and slide it to the desired position representing the new starting time for the transition. The time of the delay in seconds is displayed as you slide.

    Otherwise, click the expand graphic in the Transitions Options column or double-click the appropriate transition under the timeline. This opens the Transition window. Use the Delay before transition field to specify the new delay.

The transition is updated in the Transitions pane.

To change the duration of the transition:
