Editing or adding multiple transitions at a time

is it possible?


http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2220


this and every tutorial video thing i've found suggests there are only two choices: individually drag a transition icon between every clip for every cut, or have it change ALL the transitions in your entire video.


i just want to be able to select, say, 14 clips and tell iMovie "put a cross-fade between all of these clips." not the entire movie, not one by one, just the ones i've selected. seems reasonable.


is this possible?


thanks for any help...

Select the clips that you want to add the transitions to.

In the content library click on transitions.

Double-click the transition you want and it will add it to the clips that you selected.


Hope this helps ..
