Automatic Transitions
In iMovie 11 there was a feature with which you could automatically add multiple transitions in between a large amount of clips. This was very useful when making slideshows with hundreds of images. Since this new final cut is basically an iMovie upgrade, I am hoping this feature remained. I am having trouble finding it. Anyone have any ideas as to where this feature is (if it exists)? If not, does anyone have any suggestions for batch adding of transitions. Thanks.

I selected all clips, dragged and dropped the transition, but it is only applied to the two clips between which it was dropped. Do I have to copy and paste the transition manually between every clip? The old automation setting I’m referring to used to be in project properties (in iMovie). I would check a box and the transition of my choosing would be placed between every clip on the timeline. I know in older versions of Final Cut this did not exist, and all transitions would have to be added manually. Is there any other method besides manual application?

Try; select all and double-click the desired transition. Also, you can modify the default transition length in preferences / editing / transition.
Cheers.

That worked perfectly. Thank you so much, Logan. It was driving me nuts trying to figure that out.
