Adding Transitions

Nuke Studio supports basic video and audio fade transitions as well as dissolves between track items on the same track. Transitions come in three flavors:

Fade in - fades in from black on a single track item.

Fade out - fades out to black on a single track item.

Dissolve - fades out from one track item and into the next, by merging frames.

TIP:  Once a transition is in place, it can be nudged in the same way as an edit using the Ctrl/Cmd+ßà keyboard shortcuts, providing the required handles exist.

To add a fade transition:

1.   Right-click the target track item and select Editorial > Add TransitionFade In, Fade Out, Audio Fade In or Audio Fade Out to add the fade icon.
2.   Adjust the fade by dragging the fade icon using the Multi Tool or Move/Trim tool.

To add a dissolve transition:

NOTE:  You can only add dissolves between track items when they're on the same track and have sufficient handles available on both sides of the transition.

1.   Select the Multi Tool or Roll Edit tool and hover the mouse pointer over an edit between two track items.

TIP:  Clicking and holding the edit point displays available handles as a red overlay.

2.   Right-click and select Editorial > Add TransitionDissolve or Audio Crossfade, or use the Ctrl/Cmd+T keyboard shortcuts, to add the dissolve icon to the edit.
3.   Adjust either side of the dissolve by dragging the icon, in a similar way to using the Multi Tool or Move/Trim tool.
