Page Peel on a graphic?
i thought this would be simple enough: during a shot, have a quarter-page sized graphic do a page peel effect as it supers on over the background, but i can’t make it happen. seems the page peel transition really only works between full-screen shots, so i can’t get my single frame graphic to peel on. any ideas?

Mortimer,
Do the page peel full screen and then resize it.

You many never be able to do it to your satisfaction in FCP. Apple’s transitions are only useful between clips on the same track. and they do NOT pass the alpha channel so the graphic becomes an opoque layer, if you’re not careful.
You want a filter that can be applied to the graphic. You can take it to Motion and reimport it as a movie or a clip.

This is my standard sigfile so do not take it personally: “For crying out loud, read the freakin’ manual.”

i found a satisfactory solution. i put the still graphic into it’s own sequence, then stretched it out to 6 seconds in length, then just imported this nested sequence as a clip into my main sequence. i also had to make a copy of the main shot/clip which would be the background, and scoot it up a level so that this copied layer would be on the same layer as the supered graphic. then did the page peel between this layer 2 shot (which is identical to the track below it) and the graphic to be supered. it worked great, after fooling with the peel settings, it came out almost exactly as what i saw inside my little pinhead.
