  • How to Change Title Properties

    Posted by Jonathan Hood on February 22, 2012 at 4:37 pm

    Hey all,
    I’m using the “four corners” title to start my project. Is there any way to change some of the properties so I can determine which corner they fly in and out from?
    If this can’t be done in X is there a way to export that title to motion, change the points, and bring it back?

    I’m sure someone has explained this somewhere, if you could even point me to the right place that would help!

    Thanks!

    You can right-click on the title in the browser and select open copy in Motion. You could probably edit the title there. I think this title uses keyframes. Use the keyframe editor for this title so you can see where the keyframes are hitting.

    All the best,

    Tom

    Tom, thanks for the tip on sending to Motion. Kept trying to do that out of the timeline not out of the browser.
    Any idea why the title behaves different in Motion. In the browser and in the timeline it has the text build in from the right. When I send it to Motion it builds in from the left.

    Thanks!

    No idea why it’s reversed.

    All the best,

    Tom
