Note: The export function is provided as a quick way to save a transition
you’ve created to another location. It operates very similar to a ‘save as’
feature – it just creates a copy of the transition file. If you choose, you can
also just copy the .PXT file directly using Windows Explorer or your favorite
backup utility.
Note: Not all transitions can be edited -some are "hardwired" into ProShow.
If you try to edit one of these effects, you'll be prompted with a notice
informing you that the effect you have selected cannot be edited,
categorized or exported.

Where to Get More Transitions

There are already quite a few Transitions built in to ProShow, but if you’re
looking to add more effects to your library, you have a couple of options:

One option is to click the, Get More button at the bottom of the Effects
(FX) window. This will open up the Download Effects + Content window.
From here you can install additional, free content from Photodex, including
Transitions.
Another option is to purchase Transition Packs. Photodex offers library
add-ons of nothing but high quality Transitions that you can purchase.
These add-ons can be downloaded or shipped to you on disc. You can find
more details about Transitions on the Photodex website
(www.photodex.com).

You can also find more styles from other vendors on the Internet. Try some
web searches for terms like “ProShow transitions” or something similar to
find other packs available online.
Photodex Transition Packs come with their own built-in installation process,
but for third party styles, use the Add button found in the Effects (FX)
window to add the transition to your library. You can also double-click on a
PXT file (.pat is the file extension for transitions in Windows) to have
ProShow automatically install it for you.
