I’m aware this thread is very old, but I’ve been wondering about this same issue for ages and came across this incredibly simple, but genius solution in a Youtube video from Ben Halsall. The basics of the method are as follows:

1. Extend your text layer a little past the point where you’d like the transition to appear

2. Blade the text layer at the point where you want the transition to appear

3. Add the transition to the new cut you’ve just created in that text layer

4. Lower the opacity of the first section of the bladed text layer (ie the part before the transition) to “0”

Obviously if you want the transition at the end of the clip the steps are the same, but then you’d be lowering the opacity to zero at the extra section after the transition

Here’s the video if I wasn’t clear enough:
