Wipes
A wipe is a transition from the current video stream to a new video stream, 
using a wipe pattern.
Changing the background by means of a wipe is referred to as a “background 
wipe,” and inserting or deleting a key with a wipe is termed a “key wipe.”
There are two types of wipe: those that can be selected in a common transition, 
and those that can be selected in an independent key transition.
For details of independent key transitions, see page 37.
Types of Wipe Pattern
The patterns that can be used for a wipe are divided into a number of groups, 
as follows. Note that only the standard wipe patterns can be used for an 
independent key transition.
For wipe patterns, see “Wipe Pattern List” in Appendix (Volume 1) (page 
560).
Standard wipe patterns
Patterns consisting of straight lines vertically, horizontally, or diagonally, and 
circular patterns.
Enhanced wipes
More complex shapes such as hearts, stars, and round corners.
Rotary wipes
These patterns involve rotation of the image about a point.
Mosaic wipe pattern
This divides the image into small tiles.
Random and diamond dust wipe patterns
These patterns consist of small random tiles, or fine particles.
