If you open the transition module, it has a "favorites" section.
Make the transitions you want use "favorites", then make the slideshow.
It will only use the transitions showing in the library as favorites.

I have tried everything posted here so far, and I still can't get rid of the unwanted transitions. I would like to get rid of the heart and a couple others. Then I would like to randomly use all the remaining transitions.

When I put the transitions in MY FAVORITES and then left click the library menu, the apply random transition selection is NOT HIGHLIGHTED, thus not allowing me to select it.

Those Heart Transitions just don't look very good on a boys track slideshow

Hi Jeff -

As another Jeff (JL) once clearly stated in http://forum.cyberlink.com/forum/posts/list/4066.page

Try this
1) right click on the transitions you want and add to favorites
2) change the drop down from "all transitions" to "my favorites"
3) you should see only them in "my favorites" - remove all others if you added some before
4) on the library menu icon, icon to the right my favorites, left click and "apply random transition to all"

Make sure you DON'T include that silly valentine thing!

Cheers -

If you open the favorites menu, click on any transition to make it hi-lited, the apply random button SHOULD be available.
Only other idea...too many funky transitions may be distracting.
A combo of mostly fades, with a bunch of others tossed in by hand, might yield the best results.

EDIT! Are you using the Slideshow function or making your own?
The favorites trick only works for a self-made slideshow, not for the Slideshow function button, I think that is a weakness and should be changed. HP Envy Phoenix/4thGen i7-4770(4@3.4GHz~turbo>3.9)

Barry,

It also works if you build the slideshow with the "Magic Motion" feature, you just need to set appropriately in Edit > Preferences > Editing and change the Transition type to "My Favorites"

Improvements would always be welcomed though, there are many.

Jeff

Thanks Barry & JL -

I wasn't aware of those things... agreed, Barry - it would be nice to be able to apply only favourites in the template slideshows.

Cheers -
