Previewing transition effects
When you click on a transition icon, the Player
demonstrates the transition using the convention that
“A” represents the original clip and “B” the new clip.
The demonstration cycles for as long as the icon
remains selected.
To see a detailed view, stop the Player and use the jog
buttons (Frame reverse and Frame forward) to step
through the transition one frame at a time.

THE TITLES SECTION
This section of the Album contains a collection
of text titles in a variety of styles. They can be
used in your movie as either full-screen or overlay titles.
The difference is that in an overlay title the transparent
background is replaced by other material (usually a
video clip), whereas in a full-screen title, the
background is replaced with black.
