ADOBE PREMIERE 5.0
User Guide
The handle divides the control bar into sections that you can adjust by dragging. A control bar
includes a handle at each end to define the beginning and ending opacity settings.
3 In the Video 2 track of the Timeline window, click the rightmost handle. Keep the mouse
button depressed throughout the next step.
4 Press Shift, and then drag the selected opacity handle down until the value beside the handle
displays 20%.
This creates a downward slope in the control bar, starting at the first handle you created.
A downward slope decreases opacity. In this case, the opacity of the clip begins at 100% and
decreases to 20%. (Make sure you press the Shift key after you select the handle, otherwise
the change applies starting with the leftmost handle in the control bar.)
Note: You can also drag handles without holding down Shift, but that limits you to 5-percent
increments and does not produce a pop-up display. You can, however, use the Info palette to
view the opacity setting if you drag without holding down the Shift key.
