The Transition Corner display shows the first, middle, and last frames of the transition's A-side and B-side handle

• A. The color of the transition's edges
• B. The first, middle, and last frames of the transition's A-side and B-side handle
• C. The transition's duration in frames
• D. The current playhead position on the timeline

Answer: (B)

Handles are extra frames beyond the edit points that you use to build a transition. The Transition Corner focuses on what you have available on each side of the cut, so you can gauge how the transition will unfold without misusing precious footage. By showing the first, middle, and last frames of the A-side handle and the B-side handle, it gives a clear snapshot of how long each side’s handle is and where the transition will start and finish relative to each clip. This helps you judge timing and avoid running out of handle frames. The other aspects—the color of the transition’s edges, the transition’s duration in frames, or the current playhead position—do not convey the handle-frame information this display is designed to present.
