The only way I could figure out how to do it was to manually select select each transition and delete.

You may find it helpful to put your mouse over the timeline and right click and zoom in.

Once you select a clip, you can quickly navigate to the remaining by holding the CTRL key down and using the arrow keys.

I hope this helps

Rather easy, try the following

1) highlight the first transition you want to remove in the time line with the cursor
2) hold the shift key and select the last transition you want to remove
3) all transitions will be highlighted in this time range, hit the delete key

Awesome, thanks Jeff, that's much easier

I got so caught up in my program crashing/losing my file to no-man's-land that I forgot to thank you kind folk in helping me learn these things.

So, Thank you.

Oh, and when there are short clips and transitions, it's really hard to make sure I click the right one. Is there a way to make things bigger down in the timeline? That way I can be sure I'm highlighting the transition and not my 20 second clip?

LOL, I'm always full of questions...

I zoom in by placing my mouse pointer directly over the timeline number, right click and select 'zoom in'

Place your cursor over the time line index, it changes to a clockface with 2 arrows, right click and drag right or left and the timeline will expand or shrink.

3rd way - bottom left slider bar with clock face below music track.

As usual with video editing there's many ways to do the same thing!

I'm using Powerdirector 13.0, and this trick does not seem to work. Is it possible to select all transitions with this version of the software?

Yes. It works for me. On step 3 right mouse click on the last transition highlighted and click del on the popup window.

When I hold the shift key, and select the last transition I want to remove with a left click, the software select the slides instead of the transitions. With a right click, the popup window appear, but only the last transition is selected.

I'm using Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bits. Is it possible that this bug is related to the exploitation system?

I don't know about that exploitation system bug causing this behavior. I am also using win 7. After performing the steps 1,2,3 you quoted from Jeff it works for me and others on this forum. Maybe your hand is not steady and need to expand the timeline ruler and remove the transitions in smaller increments. That may work better for you.

Thank you for taking the time to help me. I've tried all the suggestions you've made, but it still doesn't work. This is really strange. I can select multiple transitions using the ctrl key (by clicking on each one-by-one), so I'll used this method. It's just not very practical for long slide shows.

Thnaks again for your help!
