It seems to be a common ocurrence that Apple introduces a "helpful" new way to 
do things that aren't fully integrated with existing "new" (and definitely not 
deprecated. e.g. segues) ways of doing things, and the documentation and 
examples are lacking. Bruce Nilo's 2013 presentation on the subject was 
particularly lacking in information.

Having said that, I found this sample code (which did not turn up when 
searching the sample code for "transition"), which hopefully works. My biggest 
beef at this point is that the segue *must* be a modal presentation segue (in 
fact, it seems all custom transitions are for modal presentation only), which 
seems like a silly limitation, and is not well-documented.

You're looking for the "Modal" button in that app, which has a custom segue 
that uses the transition stuff.
