Creating and saving custom title animations

Hi
I would like to create a few standard (really simple) titles for my videos.  An example of one can be found at http://youtu.be/8saxdhRoL1A
So far I have use Title > New Title > Default Still to create the basic title.
I have:
changed the font size, fill colour, outline colour and shadow as required (can you change the shadow colour??).
Moved the text to the default position (bottom left hand side)
Set the total duration to 6 seconds.
I noticed that "Text animation" provide a fade-in and fade-out, but I also wish to add slide in from left then slide out to left at some time, so I have not used the text annimation.
Having created the basic title and placed it on a video track above the main video, I have right clicked and used "Show Properties" so that I can now set key frames for opacity and (later position).
Keyframes at
0s - 0% opacity
1s - 100% Opacity
4s - 100% Opacity
5s - 0% Opacity
This works fine BUT I now wish to save this title with fade-in, fade-out (and other effects) so that I can use it later in other projects. How DO I do this????  The title that appears in the Projects Media has none of the keyframes/effects (and is still the default length for a still).
Suggestions please.

Hi Steve
Thanks for the reply.
So to make custom title I need to create a new title (basically font, style, colour, poistion), save the title down, save the opacity keyframes as a preset, and save the motion keyframes as a preset.
Then on a new project, import the title, apply the opacity effects preset, apply the motion effects preset and then I have my custom title!
Somehow I can't see myself doing that.
As an alternative I am considering creating a (blank) "titles" and "Disc Menus" project with an example of each of my titles, along with a disc menu using matching fonts and colours.  When I start a new project I'll load this "titles" project, load the media and then save down as a new project.  What do you think?
I used Pinnacle Studio for many years but got a little cheesed off when it kept crashing when attempting to make DVDs longer than 30 mins.  I changed to Cyberlink Power Director 2 years ago, but it seems to have problems with HD content longer than 60 mins, although much quicker. I'll see how Elements copes..... So I must confess to being slightly dissapointed with how difficult it is to customise Elements.
Thanks again

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    What exactly do you mean by 'it doesn't save'.
    Does this mean it doesn't save at all, doesn't save to the iCloud folder or doesn't sync with other the devices or iCloud.com.

  • How should we be going about creating and saving and/ or exporting our ODC files using Excel 2013 for use in Project Server 2013 Online?

    Hi I need your guidance on how I should go about setting up my Excel 2013 reports so that others in our Project Online 2013 environment can access and updates these reports of mine.
    My questions are as follows:
    I presume I need to create and save my ODC files in a PWA > Data Connections folder.  I have English and French users in our environment.  Do I need save them twice?  Once in the French and again in the English Data Connections folder?
     Likewise for the Excel file? 
    How should I go about creating my ODC files within Excel?  By default, the ODC files are being created on my PC's > My Documents > My Data Sources folder.  I presume I need to get them saved or exported to the PWA > Data Connections
    folder. So, How should I be going about creating and saving and/ or exporting the ODC files???
    FYI...My oData Feeds that I wish to use and join in this particular Excel file are as follows:
    https://cascades.sharepoint.com/sites/pwa/_api/projectdata/AssignmentTimephasedData01T00:00:00'

    Thanks in advance,

    Thank you Guilaume.  May I ask you to help clarify a bit more for me?  If I have to do it for both languages (the reports and ODC files), do I simply copy the same ODC files from e.g., the English to French folder in PWA (Odc files)?  Or does
    that defeat the purpose?  Or, do I need to create a new set of oData Feed Connection files with a French version of Excel 2013 and save them to the French Data Connections folder in PWA?  Do I need to have a French version of Excel 2013 to create
    French ODC files and ultimately French based reports and/ or vice versa?
    I did notice that the following oData metadata command from within a browser produces different results (ie., English versus French metadata returned) depending on who runs it (i.e., French or English user, etc).  As you can see I am a bit confused.
     Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

  • A file which was created and saved using Adobe Photoshop CS6 is not opening anymore HELP

    Hi, please help with my issue which is as follows:
    A file which was created and saved using Adobe Photoshop CS6 is not opening anymore and sends a message saying that the file is not compatible.
    What should I do, I have invested so much in that file and I dont think i will be able to do it all over again.

    That's why people do incremental saves and use backups... You could try to open the file in an image viewer like IrfanView and see which parts are salvagable, but that's as good as it gets most likely...

    I downloaded the new version of pages about a month ago.  Today I tried to open documents that I created and saved with the new version and received a message that I needed to download the new version.  The app store shows the download.  HUH?!?

    I'm not sure what you mean by it making accessing files more complicated. I have both Pages 4.3 & Pages 5.1 icons in my Dock as well as Numbers 2.3 & Numbers 3.1. I continue to use the iWork '09 versions for my everyday needs. As long as the new versions are in your Applications folder & the '09 versions in the iWork '09 folder, Software Update will not have a problem updating them even if Apple should come out with a new update for the '09 versions.
    Because I have moved the new versions to an external drive & renamed the apps because I want '09 to be the default apps, I do have to remember to move them back to my applications folder & restore the original names before updating. But since you like the new versions this "complication" doesn't apply to you.

  • Req: Save Valuation Type in PO when Outbounde delivery is created and Saved

    Hi Gurus,
    I have a requirement.
    1) PO is created
    2) Outbound Delivery is created with ref to PO and saved . The VALUATION TYPE entered in outbound delivery needs to be updated in the PO.
    please guide me in which user exit in Outbound Delivery can I update a PO valuation type.
    and also how can i change it whether through a BAPI or Direct table change.
    Avi.

    Hi,
    I have resolved this issue, I'm posting here so that it could be useful to someone.
    To trigger output from Inbound delivery, I have setup a new output and also developed a process code XXXX. A new FM is developed for this process code.
    In the new/ customized FM, I have called the standard FM 'IDOC_OUTPUT_ORDERS' which is used to pull PO data for ME10 process code.
    It is know that we have to pass PO number as object-key to the FM to pull the PO data but when a output is triggered from inbound delivery object-key will be a delivery number.
    Write a simple select statement which will get the PO number from EKES and set this as object key and pass it to FM  'IDOC_OUTPUT_ORDERS' .
    Thus, you can generate an outbound IDOC which has PO data when triggered from E1 application (Inbound Delivery).
    Thanks,
    Santo

  • How to prevent public users from creating and saving Word Documents

    I have two public computers available for the public to view legal case documents.  The program used uses the Word shell to save, view and print documents within the program.  The clerk has stated that she does not want attorneys or others to
    be able to create and save word documents on these computers.  Is there a way to prevent a user on the public computers from opening word, creating a document and saving it?

    Instead of installing Word on the public computer (or at least instead of making it available on the public account), you could install the free Word Viewer:
    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=4 and make that available for the public account. Alternatively, if you want to ensure the document retains its originally
    formatting regardless of what printer may or may not be attached to the public computer, you could keep only PDF copies of the file where the public can access them and install the free Adobe Acrobat Reader for viewing:
    https://get.adobe.com/reader/.

  • Create and save custom transition

    Hi, I made a custom transition in FCP using video filters and keyframes and would like to save it to be able to use it again. Is there any way in FCP to create and save transitions? What files actually are the transitions included in FCP?

  • Dump when creating and saving organization and contact

    Hi experts,
    I have a dump in WebUI when I try to create and save organization and contact.
    The problem is not in the saving but in the validation of address that i entered.
    When I put a value for example on street number, then I change it, the system check if there was relevant modifications.
    So, the system call the method compare_fields_of_addresses of the Class CL_GEOCODER:
    check given attributes of ADRC_STRUC
      LOOP AT fieldnames INTO lv_fieldname.
      get attribute value of first address
        ASSIGN COMPONENT lv_fieldname OF STRUCTURE address1 TO <fs1>.
      get attribute value of second address
        ASSIGN COMPONENT lv_fieldname OF STRUCTURE address2 TO <fs2>.
      compare values
        IF <fs1> <> <fs2>.
        if different, add to table of different fields
          APPEND lv_fieldname TO different_fields.
        ENDIF.
      ENDLOOP.
    fieldnames : contains all the fields of Structure ADRC_STRUC from table DD03L
    address1/address2  : contains data of the above adress with structure ADRC_STRUC from DDIC(se11)
    ADRC_STRUC contains specific fields and in DD03L, it insert field .INCLU--AP
    in DDIC, it insert field .APPEND
    to say that there are extended fields.
    So, there is normal dump because we try to compare field symbol that is not assigned
    Could you help me to resolve it please? As I know, we don't have rights to modify standards methods.
    Best regards.

    Hi everyone,
    I have found solution in OSS notes : 1561501 - GETWA_NOT_ASSIGNED in CL_GEOCODER
    So I will close my thread and thank everyone.
    I want to share this solution if there will be other people facing the same.

  • Creating and Saving My Own Midi Loops/Instrument

    I know how to create a new instrument in GB but can I also create and save midi loops that are attached to the instrument and save them in the loop browser? The same way other midi parts work so when you drag the midi out of the loop browser and into your session it loads both the part and the instrument at the same time?

  • Creating and saving a book for a web page

    I have been able to create and save as a pdf a 100 page travel book with about 195 photos. It was 89.9 mb. I gave it to my webmaster to put on my website but it is still a 10mB file that one has to download off the internet.
    my questions are...if you just want to use it as such, is there a way to make the book smaller in size,, not visual size--without losing quality in viewing = less MB? Or can one save the book in another way? (the movie version is very small to see all that is written).
    any advise would be most appreciated, thanks,
    tarzana

    tarzana:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. While in the book mode do a Print to PDF with the Save PDF to iPhoto option selected. That will create a jpg file of each page of the book that you can use to create an iWeb photo page and slideshow or create an iPhoto Web Gallery. I also use the same method to create an iDVD slideshow with music for each book that I make as described in Tutorial #6.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
