Line spacing in credit rolls using the Group Scene function

Hi, I'm having a problem with line spacing in between multiple scenes when doing a credit roll. We can crop the scenes top and bottom globally but I don't have the same number of lines with text in every scenes making it difficult to get an even spacing in between scenes. Any idea? Sometimes I import ...

Thanks Guys for your help..tons of solution, very interesting. Another one would be to use a 2 Port DVI Digital Video Splitter/Distribution Amplifier. One signal to your 2nd monitor and the other one to another monitor. #XPression

Hi everyone, I'm trying to figure out a way to have a virtual preview output to another (computer or monitor) person in the control room like the script so that she can approve the content before airing the CG. Any idea?? Thanks for your help as usual Marc

Hi Gilar, you can download the sample project from Garner right above your post or the one from the capture screens talking about the rendering tab. You will see a project to download underneath the capture screens. You will see 2 ways to add a mask to your crawl. Good luck #XPression

Hi Garner, I opened the project that you sent and it works that way. I noticed you didn't use a Layer object with the Masks. The banner is cut on each side in your version. If I wanted the banner not to be cut on each side do I have to make a second one and place it on top of the masks? Simple, ...

Hi Garner, sorry for the delay, I do this in between courses... The priority is set to Normal. I tried both ways. The mask itself works fine and does mask the text in the GroupeScene. Obvisously, I can't keep the text there because it won't crawl. I have to test this but is it possible it won't work ...

Here's what I did...I did a SceneGroup and made it to be a Crawl and in that SceneGroup I did a Quad to make my lower third banner. Then I did two more quads that I filled with a box mask that I uploaded as an image mask. I did a layer object and put everything in with the masks on the bottom of the ...

I tried cropping the scene in Designer but I can't see the results in a virtual monitor. I can see guide lines appearing but nothing at the output. I tried it on the Studio version but the crop is not where the guidelines are and they move as if the crawl moved the cropping window with the text. Tried ...

Hi everyone, I'm a teacher in a French college in Ottawa called La Cit© and we recently bought and XPression Studio with Dual Channel. I have a question regarding rolls and crawls. Can we crop them in anyway without having to do a mask? We used to have an Incriber 3G from Harris and it was very easy ...
