Transitions

Transitions live in their own tab, split into Basic single-clip animations and Complex multi-clip transitions. Hover any preset to preview it before applying.

Basic

Single-clip transitions. Select one layer, click a preset, and adjust the parameters in the modal that opens. Each animates the layer's own transform properties — nothing is added above it on the timeline.

Every Basic preset exposes a duration in frames and an easing choice (Linear, Ease In, Ease Out, Ease In Out). Slides add distance and overshoot; scales add a start or end size; Spin In adds a rotation count.

Complex

Multi-clip transitions that animate between two adjoining clips rather than animating a single layer. These require exactly two selected layers — the outgoing clip and the incoming clip — and the transition is built around the cut between them.

This group is being built out. If it's empty in your build, no Complex transitions have shipped yet; Basic transitions are unaffected.

Previews

The panel on the right plays a short clip of whichever preset you're hovering. Preview clips stream from our servers, so the first view of each needs an internet connection — see Troubleshooting if one stays blank. Presets apply normally whether or not the preview loads.
