Can I resize Transition effects so that they do not take up the entire frame?

I am editing a video game trailer that has a number of explosions. I am wanting to take the Ripple Transition effect and use it as a after-effect of the explosions. The effect is too large and covers the entire screen instead of a small portion centered around the explosions. Is there a way to resize the transition?

I believe if you use the Ripple Effect (fx) and not the Transition ripple you would place it under the track you wish to effect, position it where you want then go to MODIFY just above the timeline. There you can change the position and other elements of the effect. I am a beginner but I have modified effects and it works well for me. There may be a more advanced way but I am not aware of that.

Hope this helps

Unfortunately there is no scaling that can be applied to the effect. You can move it around the screen and change the rippling intensity etc but what you need is sorely missing. It would be great to move an effect and resize it to a particular spot I agree.
