Customizing 7MTT Transitions with 7MTT 2.3.1 or 3.0

Note: For to-be-unexplained reasons, I’m looking at just 7MTT 2.3.1 and 7MTT 3.0 for this post…

“Configuration Panning enables you to customize the way 7-Mode Transition Tool transitions the configurations.”

7MTT GUI

In the GUI, you’ll come to the following screen (looks pretty much the same in 7MTT 2.3.1 and 3.0):

7MTT 3.0 CLI

7MTT 3.0 CLI uses the> transition cbt property-set

And apart from -s SESSION_NAME changing to -p PROJECT_NAME, and -p PROPERTY_NAME changing to -n PROPERTY_NAME, the options are identical.

transition cbt property-set -p PROJECT_NAME -n PROPERTY_NAME -v PROPERTY_VALUE
