Trim a clip that has a transition

Question

I am using Premiere Elements 15. I am trying to trim a clip that has a transition between it and another clip. I want to trim it at the point where it is next to the other clip, but I can't seem to do that. Whenver I grab the Trim from End icon and move it, it actually trims the transition. The only way I can find to trim the clip itself is to delete the transition, trim the clip, then re-insert the transition. Is there a way to do this without having to delete the transition?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Make sure you have the track expanded vertical.

If you are trimming the transition, it's because you have the transition selected.

Click to select the clip you want to trim instead. Then you can trim it separate from the transition, which will remain in place.
