I'd like to make and use a video clip as a PIP object, but as I said in another post it looks like a video always has an opaque black background. So how do you make a moving PIP object (like the "zzzz" that comes with the program)? Jerry Schwartz

Well, I swan!

I double-clicked on a clip, thinking the video editor would open, and what to my wondering eyes did appear but a PIP editor!

I didn't know such a thing was there. Jerry Schwartz
