  • adjusting default duration of text?

    Posted by Aaron Metchik on March 18, 2008 at 6:18 pm

    Does anyone know how I can adjust the default duration of text that I generate? Currently, it’s set at ten seconds. I’d like it to be more like 2 seconds. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks,

    Aaron

    Not really it’s fixed at 10 secs. But what you can do is just hit Tab then type “2.” followed by return or enter and there you go!

    Or take it one step further by loading the text generator into the Viewer, change the duration to 2 secs and then drag it from the Viewer to your project tab. Next time you want to use it, open it from your project rather than the Video Generators and you’ll get the 2 secs by default.
