How to change a placeholder from Instant Project

Czrrin · Post by **Czrrin** » Fri Jul 08, 2011 9:36 pm

Hello,

Using VSP X4. I have d/l one of the templates that has a complete video w/ placeholders. All of the placeholders except the first one are flat rectangular images which are easily replaceables, the first one that is a 3d Type of rectangle with a slant. I have no idea how to replace it. Does anyone know how to adjust the image to fit into this 3d placeholder?

Thanks,

Czrrin

Welcome to the forums,

Can you tell us which specific template you're referring to? Then maybe we can find an answer..

It's the template you find under the drop down selection Complete, see instant project. I can't find the name, only ss_general shows on the timeline.

Sorry,

Your posts are not being blocked. To protect against spamming it is a requirement of new forum members that their first 2 posts be approved by forum admins. Admins are just volunteers and do not monitor this forum 24/7, so sometimes it takes some time for your first 2 posts to be approved, and in turn, appear.

Well for me that narrows it down to 1 out of 27 possibilities, but I found it I think... is it this one?

If so you can't change the first image, because it's a video clip, not an image. If you look at the video file name it says SS_General01_Start.wmv You can replace the entire clip, but that's not a separate image showing in the clip. That video clip could easily be created, using your own photo.

It definitely is not that one but thankls for the assistance. I was able to figure out what my issue was. I needed to hold the control key while dragging the image to the placeholder.

I wonder, where did you find the other clips and movies that you show on your post? I'd like to download them.

Thanks,

Czrrin

Wow ---- thank you very much

Brilliant, you learn something every day. Drag Clip, hold Ctrl and drop…..

To replace a placeholder I have always right clicked the clip and select Replace Clip-Photo.
This allows you to browse the hard drive for the image file. Its monotonous and time consuming.

I have been using Instant Projects quite a lot of late, this is certainly gonna improve things.
