Cannot install custom transitions

Cannot install custom transitions by putting them to Motion Templates/Transitions folder.

They just don't appear in Final Cut.

FCPX 10.4.9

Catalina

Thanks.

Please post a screenshot of the whole hierarchy of folders, in Column View, from Motion Templates down to one of the transitions you are trying to install.


Two of the common issues are: just putting the .motr file instead of the whole folder containing it; and not placing this folder inside a “category” folder. The category can be named anything meaningful, it will be used for grouping related transitions in tge Transitions Browser inside FCP.
