Split screen in Final Cut Pro X

When I used iMovie there was a split screen feature that had a slide option and it was great, but in Final Cut Pro X I have to move it myself and use key frames and all this other stuff. Is there any way to get that split screen feature in Final Cut Pro, or is it not professional enough 🧐 .

Try this out:

https://fcpxtemplates.com/product/split-screen-2-way/

It's currently free (but not for long).

It's an effect. Installation instructions link on the page.


Features: Left, Right, Bottom, Top splits (any *amount* of split, not just at 50%). Border (width, opacity, and color). On Screen Control (constrained depending on direction of split). Pan controls for re-centering and Scale controls for "squeezing".

Since this is an Effect, once you set up the parameters and optional animation, you can Save Effect Preset and reuse your settings over and over with little or no effort on your part.
