Fade between clips

Keith_in_UK

I've just started using the latest version of Videopad having used an earlier version for several years. There's an issue for which I'm sure there is an easy solution: When I set 'fade through black' between clips on, say track 2, the result fades everything and the main video fades as well whereas I need that to be track 2 only. How is that solved when I only want the fade to apply to one track only? That wasn't an issue in the earlier version. I've tried the options on the bottom of the transitions window but none of them make any difference. Any ideas?

Use the FADE OUT transition instead of Fade Through Black. The overlay will dip, but the background will not.

Checking ... it's been this way since at least release 7.53.

Thank you for your prompt response. I'm not by my computer just now but I'm sure that will solve it.

Your comment that it's been like this since 7. series explains it. My previous version was 4. series...
