Slideshow transition color

Post by cgman »

Hey folks,

I noticed that a lot of the transitions in the slideshow creation process (i.e) page scroll), show up as green. Some of the transitions show the next image that is showing up.

There is not an option to change or even use the green color like an alpha channel.

Can anyone share some insight on if this can be adjusted to be see through just like the other transitions?

Thanks,

Cgman

Are you looking for something like "FILM - Turn Page", or something different?

transition colors, etc

Post by cgman »

to answer my initial question. a lot of the transitions show up with a green color (page curls) i wanted to know if there was a way to change this. I assume it is supposed to be used for the "green screen effect" but it doesnt work that way.

for my second question. is there a way to create my own transitions?

I am sorry, but i am not familiar with "FILM - Turn Page". is this built in to DVDWS2?

thank you!

It is one of the builtin transitions (in the FULL version, I am not sure if it is in other versions like Express or SE).

Not at my video editing machine at the moment but I seem to recall you can alter the colours with the customize option.
Please view this link: Transitions

I'm not familiar with WS2, however in the transitions your using does it have a setting similar to this:

You can click on the green box and change the color.

Ron is correct I took a look after getting home. I think the green areas are probably designed to produce a chroma key effect when used in programs supporting that medium such as VideoStudio / MediaStudio.
