After messing with them a little bit, I have to say transform is better in almost every way to position and zoom unless im missing something obvious
Transform even allows you to put the keyframes relatives to the end, which allows you to create custom effects for clip endings, allowing you to reuse your handcrafted effects. Which is a killer feature Theres nothing you can do with position and zoom that you cant do with transform, but theres things you can do with transform that you cant do with position and zoom (the later even have an imporant bug as farid pointed out) I understand it might be the work of different people and is a mess from the developer perspective not to include it, but I would prefer redundancy to be gone from the user perspective. I think "Theres no wrong way to do it" is bad ui design. Its confusing and make users think they are different features, which arent obvious unless you try them all... which is why is bad ui design Im not sure yet about transition vs effect. The supposed advantage is that is more than alpha blend, but transform effect have an compositing option which controls that... Again, I understand completely floss development, and this is a byproduct of having several authors doing their own thing... which im very grateful to btw... but somebody should be calling ui design choices separating the wheat from the chaff to improve kdenlive :) Thank you all for your replies!
