Battling with intro to my video

Post by deonholt »

Hi fellows.

VS X2

I have gone through some tutorials that I have bought from www.seeitdoit.tv which really helped me a lot.

I am now trying to do on my own the intro of the wizard where the screen splits up in 4 and have 4 block with different colours. I manage to get this right, sort of.

1. Is there a way to make overlays invisible? Photoshop has an image of an eye to click on and then it hides the layer.
2. On two of my overlay tracks, the animated crop effect's thumbnail shows next to the down arrow and two of them not. How can I get this to go away?

Sincere regards,
Deon

If you're referring to the Moving Blocks tutorial, he omitted one very important step.. Please view This Thread found in our Video Studio Tutorials section.

In VS to hide a track, simply go to the Track Manager, and ucheck the track(s) you want to hide.

Your #2 question: are you wanting to remove the effect? If so select it in the effects window of the attribute tab, and click on the X.

Had the same problem but some of my tracks are "greyed out" so I can't uncheck them!

You can not un-check the Main Video, Overlay track#1, Title Track#1, or the two audio tracks. These will always be visible.
