Applying an Effect to Multiple Transitions
To apply an effect to multiple transitions:
1. | |
If there is not already an effect on one of the transitions, add a
transition effect. The Avid editing application allows you to perform
this procedure only if one of the transitions already has an effect on it.
|
2. | |
Select Tools > Effect Editor.
|
3. | |
Click the transition effect described in step 1.
|
4. | |
If the Effect Editor is blank, click the Effect Editor to display the
information for the transition effect.
|
5. | |
Click above the Timeline, and begin dragging to activate a selection
box. Continue to drag down and either to the left or right to include
additional transitions in the selection.
|
6. | |
Release the mouse button when you have lassoed all the transitions
you want.
|
7. | |
If the transitions where you want to apply the effect are not contiguous,
Shift+click any transition to deselect it.
|
8. | |
Open the Effect Palette.
|
9. | |
Double-click the icon for the effect that you want to apply to the
transitions.

If the sequence does not have enough incoming or outgoing media to apply
the transition effect, a dialog box opens. For more information, see Sizing
the Effect to Fit the Media.
