Fading Text In and Out - Video Sequence Editor I'm having difficulty getting text in my video to fade in and out. Currently, if I add text, it simply pops up without any transition.

I've attempted doing something similar to fading video clips in and out by using color and gamma crossing, but that doesn't seem to be doing the trick.

Could anyone help me understand what I need to do in order to get this to work? I noticed there's an option to mess with text opacity, but it doesn't allow me to make the opacity rise and fall throughout the timeline.

Thanks in advance for any help.
