Re: move over single vertical letter in Boris 3D

Hi,

The typewriter animation that you are searching for is called "Type On" and this effect is very easy to produce in Boris Title 3D. Here's how:

• generate the title that you want in Title 3D
• set the in and out points and cut the title into the timeline
• double click on the title to make the controls visible
• move the CTI to the start of the title in the timeline
• in the control panel tab, scroll down to the Text Type On parameter
• add a keyframe for this parameter and set the value to 0
• move to the end of the title in the timeline
• add a keyframe for the Text Type On parameter and set the value to 100

The title will now appear in a typewriter fashion.

Regarding the position of the title - you can control that in the title generator window in so far as you can set the justification and leading etc but the rest of it is controlled in the FCP canvas window. Set the viewer to display image + wireframe and you can move items interactively on the screen.

I hope this helps.

Peter.
