X4 from X2 confusing

Post by dippydooo »

I just received my cd with X4. Is there a wizard that imports the music and pictures as in X2 and are transitions customizable as in X2.

Thank you

No the Movie Wizard got stuck in the balloon and sailed away from OZ back to Kansas... :lol: :lol: Now there is the Instant Project (wizard), however it is different. It is template driven for intro, outro segments, and also complete project ideas.

The Pan/Zoom (menu) is located on the Photo tab of the Options panel, which is the same as the Image tab in VS X2.

LOL nice answer Ron. Is there a way to move things from X2 to X4. There is a title I need from X2 and a few other things. Do I have to use X2 then open it in X4?

Thank you

The Libraries/Organizers are quite a bit different, so using the Export>Import will not work. For titles, place them on the time-line in VS X2, then save the project, open the project in VS X4, drag the title to the Library/Organizer. The other elements of the various libraries are not specific to one version or the other. I see things that have been around for several years, same old samples.

The objects used in the Movie Wizard in VS X2 are clips, and can be found on your system, then imported into VS X4 just like any other clip.
