Dip to White: Option to start mid-transition is missing

[dansushi]

I remember in previous version of Premiere, I used to be able to start a Dip to White transition at the 50 percent mark, so that it would start immediately at white, and then dissolve back into the footage. Is seems that now this option is missing. Is there a way to make it work (And I don't mean a workaround like making a white color matte and then adding a cross dissolve)? This feature was useful for other transition types as well- When you don't need the whole transition, but just need the first or last half of it.

Dip to white/black has been redesigned.

Best is to use it only as a double sided transition.

For single sided transition use a color matte.

That's unfortunate that it's been "redesigned" to remove features. Good to know there's workarounds but it's always a pain when features are removed for seemingly no reason.

You can create the transition as preset with the ramp effect, start color white, end color white, use keyframes in blend with original.

Redesigned = removed time saving functionality for no obvious benefit, cheers Adobe.

Yea...I came here with the same question. I could swear i was JUST using this a couple of weeks ago. As I'm pretty new to Adobe I have no idea how to do this seemingly simple workaround. In my head I was like if only I could make an all white frame and transition from there. Except now I have to learn how to make an all white frame.

Whats the point?!

White frame? make a color matte and set it to white.

Or someone suggested to make a preset from the ramp effect.

Set everything to white and keyframe blend with original.

As Ann mentioned, in Premiere Pro version 12.1 the Dip to Black and Dip to White transitions were redesigned to add Save Preset functionality. Unfortunately, this came at the cost of losing Start/End functionality. Please feel free to provide your feedback here: Please add back the percentages feature in Dip To Black/White transition. Why break it? – Adobe vide...

If that's the case why (visible in the screen grab) of the 3 dips to black I have added to the end of clips in V2, V3 and V4 does the dip on V4 still have the 'end at 50%' functionality?  The others don't.  Baffling.  Yes, this is CC18.

Creating a ramp preset is an irritating extra step TBH.

Instead of a colour matte like everyone suggests try using ramp, I prefer it.

Just change both the colours on the ramp to white, and keyframe the blend to original
