Wipes

Overview

A wipe is a function that switches from the current image
to a new image using a wipe pattern.
You can also switch the background and insert/remove
keys depending on the wipe.
There are two types of wipe: wipes that can be set in a
common transition, and wipes that can be set in an
independent key transition.
Wipe patterns
Wipe patterns are classified into the following groups.
Only standard wipe patterns can be used in an independent
key transition.
For the pattern images, see "Wipe Pattern List"
(page 366).
Pattern group Description
Standard wipes Patterns consisting of straight lines
vertically, horizontally, or diagonally,
and circular patterns
Enhanced wipes Patterns such as stars, hearts, and
round corners
Rotary wipes Patterns that rotate an image about
a point
Mosaic wipes Patterns that divide an image into
small tiles
Random/diamond Patterns that display small tiles
dust wipes randomly, and patterns that generate
fine particles
Pattern mix
You can create a new pattern by mixing two patterns (main
and sub).
Four types of pattern mix can be created: mix, positive
non-additive mix (NAM), negative non-additive mix
(NAM), and morphing mix.
Chapter
Note
In an independent key transition, a pattern mix cannot be
used.
Dust mix
This applies a diamond dust wipe effect to a pattern created
using a wipe pattern or pattern mix.
Wipe pattern modifiers
You can add various modifiers to a wipe pattern, such as
setting the wipe direction and pattern position.
Pattern limit
You can specify the transition execution limit of a wipe.
For details, see "Pattern Limit" (page 63).
Note
In an independent key transition, a pattern limit cannot be
used.
