Remove Fades with one click ?

[John Walker]

Sometimes I use the Fade Option on clips but then decide a transition would be better. Is it possible to reset audio/video fades to remove them. I can do it ok manually but I'm hoping there's a quicker way.

I don't know of any way to do it with a click or two, John. Sorry.

The only way I know is a round about way is to press the shift key then click to select every fade then delete. But as Steve says there is no single click option.

Are you talking about the fades that are created where the Opacity effect is automatically keyframed (fade-in, fade-out, fade-in fade-out)?

In Premiere Elements 2020, I can clear those kinds of fades rather easily.

What you do is copy an Opacity effect from one of your clips that hasn't been keyframed, and then Paste to all selected clips you want to clear of the fades. To copy just Opacity, select a clip that has default Opacity, right-click on the Opacity header over in the Effects panel--not the timeline--then select Copy from the pop-up menu.

Next select all the clips you want to clear of the fades, then press CTRL-V (paste). If you right click on a clip and expect to use Paste on the pop-up menu, the option will be disabled. You can use Paste in the main Effect menu, though.

Leave it to Robert to find the solution!
