Copying and Pasting Transitions
To add the same transition quickly elsewhere within your sequence, you can copy and
paste a transition to other edit points. This is helpful if you’ve changed a transition’s
default settings and want to use the modified transition again. (You can also make
frequently used transitions “favorites.” For more information, see “
Saving a Transition as
a Favorite
