shooternz Jul 9, 2013 4:52 PM (in response to danzg)You can type a time duration into the entry point in the FX Control.
You can drag the alignment and the duration with a mouse in the timeline.

5. Re: Shorcut to change duration/alignment of transition?
danzg Jul 9, 2013 6:18 PM (in response to petergaraway)Yeah, that's not really helpful though.
There should AT LEAST be shortcuts for Center/Start/End at cut, and a shortcut to change transition duration.
The best implementation IMO is on Avid, where you can add a transition via a dialog. A couple keystrokes and you have exactly what you want.

danzg Jul 9, 2013 6:55 PM (in response to shooternz)I don't have it in front of me, but basically, you click your Add Tran shortcut.
A dialog pops up.
You press up/down to select fade/dissolve/dip/etc.
Press tab and enter duration.
Press tab and up/down to choose start/center/end.
OR enter how many frames before cut to start!
Press enter, done.
Of course you can skip all the tweak and just add your default.
It's sweet.

8. Re: Shorcut to change duration/alignment of transition?
shooternz Jul 9, 2013 7:20 PM (in response to danzg)I am familiar with Avid MC transition application and tweaking.
Personally...no advantages for me and I find that I can do more.. quicker in Prem FX CTRL Window using the mouse.(and duration dialogue)
Have you played with Mouse Control and noticed how the program monitor becomes Trim monitor with TC displaying adjustment?
What about aligning and control of each end?
Do you have a shortcut for FX Control Window? I use F11 for FX and F12 for FX Control
If I did have a wish for FX Control Window in regard to transitions...it would be the abilty to change the Transition for another one...right there.
No biggie though really...I use Dissolves 99.8% of the time anyway.

JSS1138 Jul 10, 2013 6:32 PM (in response to danzg)Just throwing this out there, but one of the unadvertised features of CC7 is that you can double-click on a transition to open a duration dialog. It's already highlighted so you can just type a number and hit Enter.
