How to stop/pause scrolling title?

Post by deonholt »

Hi there.

VS X2.

How do I stop/pause the top left (very 1st) scrolling title? I want my title to scroll from the bottom of the screen and then stop for a second or two and then disappear.

I trust this is enough info to explain.

Thank you so long for your help.

Regards,
Deon

In the image below moving the triangles (# 12) will adjust the pause and duration of an effect. This holds true for most not all text animations. There are some that do not provide for the user to set the pause and duration. If you move the triangles inward the duration of the effect will be slower/longer, and the pause time (duration the image or text is static) will be shorter. So if you want your text/image/video to move/appear onstage fast, you need the left triangle near the left edge of the bar.

  1. Animation tab. You first must go to the Animation tab to access all the various animations, and to customize any of them.
  2. Apply Animation. Check the box to apply animation, this will activate the other features found on this tab.
  3. TT, Customizing (#3). After selecting your animation from the drop down menu found to the left of the TT, pressing the TT opens the Customize dialog window which is #4.
  4. Customizing. In this dialog you can set the Start, and End Units to be Character, Line, Word or Text. Then the Pause menu provides for the choices of Short, Intermediate, Long, User Defined, or No Pause. User Defined provides for the most control over the animation, while the others have limited control.
  5. Enter/Exit (Not numbered in image). Pressing the corresponding arrow will cause the text to enter and exit in those directions.
Hopefully that should help you get the animation(s) you would like. The Help File (clicking on the :?: icon in the upper right) and the User Guide (starting on page #120) briefly lays out the above.
