4.4 Free motion
You can freely define the motion of the text
using the Free motion effect option. The text will
then move along the path that you have defined.
If you click on the Free motion button, the
following menu opens:
In the background you will see the first frame of
your video scene with the text that you entered
previously superimposed on it.
If you have started the program for the first
time and have not loaded a preset yet or have
not created one in the Fixed motion menu item,
you will initially only see one (green) point
representing the position of your text. This is the
starting point.
If you have already inserted several points, the
path will additionally include a finishing point
and several normal points.
In the menu foreground at the bottom edge
of the screen you will see a toolbar with the
following buttons:
If you click on this button, the toolbar minimizes
and only displays this button and the one
beneath it thus ensuring you have a clear view
of your video scene and the drawn path of the
title.
