Transitions for Multiple Images

Is it possible, when placing a number of still images on the timeline, to have Pr apply the default transition between them all automatically?   Or does it have to be done individually between each pair of images?   Thanks  Joe

    Draw a "bounding box" around the clips, or "select all" if you have nothing else on the sequence. Then use the keyboard shortcut for "Apply Default Transition" which on my Windows rig is Shift-D.

    Note ... some transitions need 'handles', meaning that using clips trimmed both ends gives the transition the necessary media to ... transition, so that the cut line stays the same. Some transitions are not really well suited for still image work.

    Did you try it?

    Select all the clips, and then once selected, use the keyboard command Command (Control) + D.

    All you transitions should now have the default transition applied.
