  • Adding Transition to Text in Secondary Storyline

    Posted by Sascha Engel on April 9, 2015 at 10:42 am

    Hi,

    I have a weird problem:
    When I have a text on the Secondary Storyline as Super over some images on the Primary Storyline,
    and I ad a transition to the Text layer, it effects the entire image, also the one on the Primary Storyline.
    How come?
    Ut’s a sudden bug?

    Greetings,

    Ji Jeremy,

    Actually, I tried it with several ones. In this case is was mainly blurs & wooshes.

    Some transitions are only made to work between clips. Some can be modified in Motion to work properly with titlesand some can’t. In Motion you have to turn off A or B depending on if you want an incoming or outgoing transition.

    Thanx for the quick reply. Will try that!
    Once of the things, where I expected X to behave like 7. 😉

    When you have 7 layers stacked up and you want to slide or whoosh between them all, you’ll appreciate those transitions more.

    You are right, for that occasion it rocks, but I’d like to have a choice, and the fact that I cannont make it work stand alone only for the superimposed text layer really sucks.
    I ended up doing it in AE, since due to deadline patience was low.

    Try these. They are copies of other transitions modified specifically for text.
