I tried this with Scroll Up and it worked fine. (Note that the End Effect is the same as the Begin Effect with this one.) With Perspective Scroll the only way I could get it to slow down was to extend the overall duration of the title.

Hope that helps.

I also found that adjusting the second and third key frames so that the yellow band on the blue stripe is as small as possible tends to slow down the scrolling.

Hi Robert & Robert,

This is interesting, because I have never seen any adjustable/moveable key frames when it comes to modifying the text animation properties. I’ve seen where others have made reference to these key frames, and moving them in order to modify the durations of text animation, but I’ve been to embarrassed to ask where they are? They simply don’t appear on my Modify Text screen.
I can see and have taken advantage of the key frame pointers/arrows in for instance PIP Motion, but have never seen them appear or be associated with the modifying of text motion since I started using PD (v4). I’m currently using PD7 Deluxe (build 2206)

So... for modifying text motion durations, this has always been my workaround...

I’m probably missing something simple here, thus coming up with this complicated workaround. But in using this workaround, all aspects of creating the desired text, works fine for me.

G'day mates. Take a look at:

This is one I did earlier. Open it up in Title Designer - click on the text etc.

Ok, I've looked at what Robert's done and I've sent him some images and a pds.
Basically this is to do with the primary and secondary keyframes not being correctly set initially - re-doing the Title will sort everything out.

images to assist attached.

Thanks for images Dayfdd.

I can't believe I missed this all this time. I had tried to hover my mouse over the blue/yellow line in the past (even though there aren't actual key frame markers/triangles, like the ones displayed in say... PIP motion), but I never got the little double arrow to display. But now with some experimentation, I find that if I am extremely precise (and patient), I can indeed find that very small sweet spot to hover my mouse on the line, to get the double arrow to show, thus making it possible to slide the out and in duration points.
Perhaps this is why I missed it, as one has to (on my rig anyway), be an extremely precise mouse hoverer guy. Maybe in version 8, Cyberlink could broaden a bit, the sensitivity of finding these spots to get the double arrow to display. Click here PDtoots for a collection of PowerDirector Tutorials and Tips

Thanks Robert and Dafydd,

My problem was to use the logical approach, that you would move key frame 1 and then key frame 2, not 2 then 1, that appears illogical. However issue now resolved.

Thanks guys
