light effect not working properly

Post by oliverw123 »

Hi

I am having problems with one of FX effects in corel video studio x3. When I select 'stationary' on the tick box and play back the video, the light still pans around the screen regardless of 'stationary' being selected or not. It is driving me mad... any solution or is it a programming error??

Welcome to the forums, :)

In the customize dialog, when you have stationary selected, does the cross in the left pane move from it's position on the first keyframe? It should not. I've tried replicating this, and find that with stationary selected, the cross stays in place. There are other settings, that may make it seem like the light is moving, when in reality it is not.

Try right-clicking the first keyframe, select copy/paste to all. This will copy and paste all the settings to all keyframes. If there's other settings you want changed you can go to the next or last keyframe and make those changes. The position should remain the same though.

Hi Ron

Thank you for the reply. I have got it working now having followed your advice. In fact I didn't know about the 'right clicking on keyframes and copying attributes' but this has solved my problem. Otherwise very good software, really enjoy using it.

Regards,
Oliver
