Transitions Solution

Summary

This solution showcases Transitions in SceneComposer. Therefore different types of transition are used for replacing a scene with another scene. It shows how using a transition provides continuity so that the scene change is not quite so abrupt. Note that the Player has to be used to run the sample appropriately because only the Player supports Transitions.

Purpose

The user gets an impression of what can be done by using Transitions.
