Change multiple transition durations at once.
Frequently, one will need to change the duration of multiple transitions on multiple clips on separate tracks. It would be convenient to be able to shift click multiple transitions and change them all to the same duration within one dialog.

This would be huge! I've been wanting this for a decade on Premiere. Please implement!

Greetings Fellow editors,

I developed new extension: EXCALIBUR. It has "Apply Transition" command. You select multiple transitions (either shift+click or drag over cuts with cmd/ctrl pressed down). Then call up this command and select duration to apply, all of selected transitions will get same duration.
Watch here, on 11 second: https://youtu.be/lvlgHy5TQx8
And you can assign shortcut to this command.

But it does much more than that, learn more here:

Yes, and while you're at it, add a way to select all transitions in a range so we can delete or adjust length of them all at once.

It might mean dragging a box around clips to select them, then go to Edit > Select Transitions which will then select the transitions that are touching the clips you have selected.
