Is there a way to set duration for a vid transition?

[Alexander_Fetisov]

Sorry if its something obvious. I'm new to c++ and this sdk.

I'm trying to modify CrossDissolve example from the sdk so it would apply my effect only to a couple of frames. To the last frame from one clip and the first frame of another clip. I need a way to either make length of the transition equal to 2 somehow or a way to determine the ending and starting frames. Atm my effect only works if a user manually sets it's length to minimum possible.

Zac can confirm, but I don't think anything in the Transition API will allow the transition to modify the range to which it's applied.

Imagine the user experience: "I applied this transition to this time range, then it changed out from under me!"

Agreed.  There is a user preference where you can set the length of the default transition.  But the transition itself cannot enforce its length.
