holding an image during a transition

[Mike Reed]

Is it possible to hold an image during a transition thereby creating a third image. If it is how can I do it?

Hi Mike,

There are a few ways to do this.

You can 'create' the 3rd image in Photoshop & then add it between your 2 images leaving it on screen for the desired time.

You could create the 3rd image in PTE by putting one on top of the other & adjusting Opacity. Then Export this image from PTE & as above insert it between your 2 images.

Or the way I would do it, is by using KeyFrames and adjusting the Opacity of each image during the Transition.

Will be much easier to show you than trying to describe it.

Thanks Jill

I guessed you would know the answer. I will try it and only disturb you if I get into trouble. Maybe it could be covered on Friday by Tony
