Creating Titles

[pmcgrat]

Does anyone know why I can create a plain Title in Video Studio 11, but in Video Studio X4 it will only create a moving Title? I cannot find any way to make just a Title and place on the clip anywhere I want. I double-click on the clip, but it automatically puts the text at the top of the screen and then takes on the attributes of a template.

Hi pmcgrat,
To create a title that just sits on the screen do the following:
1 - Click the Title icon on the left of the Library Navigation Panel, the big " T ".
2 - Double click in the Preview Panel - where it says "Double click here to add a title" and type the text.
3 - The text size, colour, and line spacing can be addjusted in the Edit tab of the Options panel. There is a box which has arrows pointing in all directions, Alignment, which
will let you place the text at the top, bottom, left, right, etc., of the frame.
4 - Click the Attribute tab in the Options panel and make sure the "Apply" box does not have a check mark in it. If it does, then the animation takes effect.

It's really that simple.

there is a video tutorial here which explains the basics - it is labelled for version 11 but it is the same in VS 10SE
