Is it just me?

Post by videojim »

When I preview a title page, it doesn't line up in the same place on the screen as when I create it. I set the words up, and they look great there. When I do preview they are skewed, but when I create, they look exactly as I originally had them. Anybody else seeing this? I am setting up in vertical scroll, Star Wars style.

Jim,

The small 'Preview' windows are often off in terms of placement. I use them to gauge speed of an effect, but prefer to use the 'Full Size' preview to assess placement of titles, etc. If you wish to see your scrolling titles and where they will move across the screen use the timer/scroll bar in the Full Size preview window to move thru the title sequence.

Regards,
Chet

This is more than a little irritating now as it's been 'like that' for some time.

However, as Chet says, Full Size Preview gives you a more accurate idea (depending on what screen resolution you're using :roll: ) of where things will end up.

It's a shame 'we' don't have a visual numbered ( x & y) guide to help with positioning . . .

Aditional the Standard Titler is still unable to adust in 16:9 screen mode.
Thus the Standard Titler is not yet updated to fullfill todays normal specifications,
since still in poor 4:3 modus, even in a 16:9 project.
