Text Plug-in repositioning when i type?
by mike calla on May 12, 2008 at 4:07:37 am

OK, I’m sorry to ask this: Sony Text Plug-in – How do I keep my titles from repositioning when I type something new. I created an “Insert text here” title for use as a template. I perfected the right font, leading, tracking. I positioned it perfectly in my lower third. My first drag on the timeline - type something new - and the text moves away from its original position in relation to how much text I type. I then have to reposition it manually. Tedious!

I could understand if it moved up or down in relation to how many lines I type, but why move left or right? I can’t seem to figure this out. I have thirteen 22 min episodes with hundreds of names and places and I can’t see myself repositioning every time I need a new lower third title!

I must be missing something?

I’ve been a Vegas user for a bit now, but always long form or 30 sec spot work, almost never lower thirds. When we needed it we always hired a compositing wiz kid to cook them up – he’d .veg it over and we’d drop it in when needed.

I swear, every time I learn a new app/plug-in it pushes an old app/plug-in out of my head!
