TRANSITIONS LIST

This appendix shows the icons assigned to each MX-4 DV transition, and identifies them by number.

Some transition descriptions use special terms and abbreviations to describe how the transi- tions work.

(A)— The CURRENT source: the one on the screen before the transition begins.

(B)— The NEXT source: the one on the screen after the transition finishes.

Dissolve — One image fades away as another fades in.

Wipe — A simple window or boundary that reveals the underlying video. The video image neither moves nor changes size.

Slide — Leaves the video full size but the picture moves with the transition.

Comp, Exp — (Compress, Expand) The video resizes to fit the window. Normally, the entire picture scales to fill the window.

H, V — (Horizontal, Vertical) These refer to the direction in which the transition moves. For example, a V wipe is a horizontal line that moves vertically up or down the screen. When the effect runs in the forward (non-reversed) direction, vertical transitions move down the screen and horizontal transitions move from left to right, unless otherwise indicated.

CW, CCW — ClockWise and CounterClockWise movement.

L, R, Ctr, T, B — Left, Right, Center, Top, and Bottom, respectively.

TLC, TRC — Top Left Corner and Top Right Corner, respectively.

BLC, BRC — Bottom Left Corner and Bottom Right Corner, respectively.

“;” — Divides multi-step transitions. “/” indicates two actions that occur simultaneously.

*— The transition always uses a fixed direction when performed from frozen picture. They are not affected by the REVERSE button.

#— The transition operates differently when performed from a frozen picture. Simpler effects are substituted automatically.
