Trimming Transitions and the Surrounding Clips
Trimming is the process of modifying the edit points of clips that are already in your
sequence. After you’ve opened a transition in your sequence in the Transition Editor,
you can fine-tune your edit. This is done using the handles on the Out point of the
outgoing clip and the In point of the incoming clip that meet to form your transition’s
edit point.
Changes you make to a transition in the Transition Editor (if it’s opened from the
sequence in the Timeline and not the Browser) immediately affect this transition in
your sequence.
Drag the hand from the
Transition Editor to an
edit point in your
sequence.
