Seven transitions pass through a colour: Dip, Flood, Rings, Stripes, Blades, Burst and Pixel. You can use a solid colour, a gradient or a see-through colour, so the change matches your brand.

Colour a transition

Select the transition

Click the arrow and choose one of the seven from the grid. A colour row appears under it, black by default. The colour row for a Flood transition with a gradient swatch

Pick the colour

Click the swatch and enter a colour. In the picker, the type switch offers Solid and Gradient.

Make it a gradient

Choose Gradient to start from your colour fading to a lighter one. Edit it as you would any gradient: add or drag stops and change the angle. See Gradients.

Lower the opacity

Reduce the opacity field beside the colour. Below 100% the pages show through it. The page also changes at the end of the transition instead of halfway, so you see the next page arriving behind the colour.

Between pages

With nothing selected, the right panel has Between pages. It is the colour that shows in the gaps as the camera flies from page to page on a Fly. It is a near-black by default. Pick a solid colour or a gradient, for example your brand colour, so a flight across the board looks intentional. You can also switch it to an image and pick one from your images. Set the image's fit, or choose Tile to repeat a small image as a pattern.

Try it

On the sale flow, set the arrow into Offer to Flood. Pick the colour of your Badge, lower the opacity to 70%, and play. Then set Between pages to a pale colour and try a Fly between two other pages.
