i've never seen a button called cross dissolve unfortunately  
so i had to do it with keyframes  
just insert a key where you want the effect to start and finish for both of the video tracks and animate their parameters, opacity for example... this works perfectly!!!!  
hope this helped

has anyone found any easier way?
