Motion 5 - Transitions with breaks in the video content? How?

I hope someone can help with this. I am trying to create a transition between two clips which while transitioning will show a text frame ot introduce the next video. I want it to break the flow between the videos. When I create the transition in Motion 5 I have assembled all the elements, made transition A last for 2 seconds, there is a 6 second gap then as the camera pans to the text element and then across to Transition B which itself then runs for 2 seconds.


This is how i designed it, it works fine in Motion and looks how I want it. However when I export to Final Cut and use in a project it creates the transition but it ignores the break i put between content A and content B. Instead I get 5 second tail out of Clip A and 5 seconds lead in on Clip B. Its driving me mad as I want both feeds to go quiet and do nothing while the text displays.


Does anyone know how I can get FCP to recognise the break I have put in Motion and therefore only tail each clip for 2 seconds not the entire duration of the transition?


If this cant bedone, how could I best acheive what im trying to do?


Thanks for any help that can be offered.
