Does anyone have any thoughts on how to do credits where the text dissolves in and out, instead of doing a roll/crawl?

I've built a scene using Stagger Animations, where the person's title dissolves in, then 10 frames later the person's name dissolves in. Then they dissolve out together while the next page titles dissolve in, then 10 frames later the names dissolve in.

It works great, except I can't change the time on the fly, like I could with a roll/crawl.

Depending on how short or heavy the show is, I would need to change the duration of this quickly.

Any ideas are welcome.... Thanks!

If you want to show your names 1 by 1. Do a classic scene for 1 name and title (with your stagger), in sequencer put X times you need your scene with different name in one group.
Set this group "automated" and set its duration the value you want.
Each scene transition are cut for IN and dissolve for OUT.

To play your credits, use the group (enter or "+" on group item)
