Adding a SMPTE Wipe
 
 
 

Smoke contains a number of predefined SMPTE wipe patterns. When creating a wipe, you can choose a wipe pattern from the file browser or enter the SMPTE pattern number in the Pattern Number field.

To add a SMPTE wipe:

  1. Select the transition where you want to create the wipe.
  2. Click Wipe or press Page Down. You can also press Shift+Page Down to add a wipe on all tracks that have a cut at the point where the positioner is located.

    The default wipe specified in the Preferences menu is added to the cut.

  3. To change the default wipe, click Pattern.

    The file browser appears.

    NoteIf you know the identification number of a specific SMPTE wipe, you can enter that number in the Pattern Number field to apply the wipe to the selected transition.
  4. Select a pattern from the list of available SMPTE wipes. Selecting a pattern causes you to exit the file browser.
  5. Select the alignment.
  6. Set the transition duration.
