Thanks! The text tool was what I was missing. I was trying to use the text filter to create the text, then apply the preset to that layer. That wasn’t working.

I didn’t update to 6.5 so the text tool was not part of my text animation toolbox.

Let me try it this way…

If I want to use the Center spiral preset what do I do. Walk me through. I’m usually not so confused about these things but the drag and drop thing doesn’t seem to apply any changes to my text.

Do I use path text to create the text, then apply the preset? What is the order of events.

Thanks

Just to keep everyone up to date. I did an uninstall of Encore, removed all traces of program folders and any leftover files using the Registry Fix 2005 and reinstalled XPSP2. I then reinstalled Encore. Seems to have fixed the problem.

Thanks for all the suggestions

Thanks David. That’s the best lead on the problem I’ve gotten so far.
