Description Larsen 2015-06-21 10:02:40 UTC

When I add a transition between two clips, the duration is set to 2s:15f.

It should be possible to configure this default duration in Kdenlive´s settings as it already is for title clips.


Reproducible: Always

I would like to suggest that when a timeline clip is selected when adding a transition (to it), that the new transition is created with the same length as the currently selected timeline clip. I would think that this is what users often want to do anyway, but I may be wrong.

At least for me, that's not what I would want. For example, when I add a transition to fade from one clip to another, this transition needs to have a fixed length, but it should not fade over the whole length of one clip. I'd rather use the same transition length for all my clips in the project.

I see that we have different use cases in mind: you are using cross-fade transitions, I'm mostly using compositing and only hard cuts. So, different use cases.

Jean-Baptiste, I did implement this on my own branch. Are you interested in pulling it?

Thanks Jean-Baptiste for pulling this and landing it in the codebase.
