Pan & Zoom Question

Post by Black Lab »

Can someone confirm this for me:

First of all, I have changed the background color from the default black to a light blue. When my images are on the main video track the light blue background is viewable for portrait images. The instant I add Pan & Zoom to that image (any image) the background turns to black.

I guess I never noticed this before because I rarely change the background color. I am assuming this is standard procedure, but I don't know why. Seems kind of stupid to me. :?

Not at home right now so unable to do a physical check, but looking at one of my previous posts I found this screen shot

Down the bottom of the screen in the middle is an option "Background color"

I had not noticed this until you brought this to our attention, but the background color needs to be set in the pan/zoom customize dialog.
