How do you add transition effects to clips in Final Cut Pro?

The correct method for adding transition effects to clips in Final Cut Pro involves dragging transitions from the Effects Browser to the desired clips. This approach allows you to visually select the specific transition you want and place it directly on the edit point between two clips or over a single clip for a specific application. The Effects Browser provides a comprehensive gallery of various transitions, which you can browse, preview, and apply, making it an intuitive way to enhance your edits.

While other methods might seem plausible, they do not align with the established workflow for applying transitions effectively in Final Cut Pro. For instance, inserting a transition from keywords is not a supported operation, and using the Inspector to search would require steps that are unnecessary for the direct action of applying transitions. Additionally, while transitions can affect clips in the Timeline, this does not represent a standalone method for adding them; it often requires initial steps that involve the Effects Browser. Thus, the direct action of dragging transitions from the Effects Browser stands out as the most efficient and recognized method among the options provided.
