5 Steps

We just upgraded to Premiere 25.5 from 24.6. The addition of the Film Impact assests is nice, etc, but I've noticed something...

It now takes 5 steps to apply a default transition.

1. Highlight the edit.

2. Use keyboard shortcut to apply the transition.

3. Find the microscopic point on the transition that allows you to focus the transition and click on it.

4. Click on the transition AGAIN.

5. Move the transition to beginning of the edit.

6. (optional) Completely forget what I was doing because it took 5 steps to apply a simple transition.

I have been suggesting for YEARS to add a default POSITION to a default transition in preferences. Beginning of cut, center of cut, end of cut. It would eliminate 3 steps in the process.

That's it. End of rant.
