You may well be right, although there are many more templates available now than in earlier builds so I presume more will become available, but I don't see the current module having the capability to "build your own" so to speak. I suspect it is more akin to the pre-set slideshow templates that are pre-built.

Perhaps Theme Designer is the wrong title, maybe it should be "Auto theme your video" or something?

But who knows what the future holds??

Hi Adrian,
Thanks for the feedback...I spent an hour yesterday trying to create my own...failed...then another hour or so this morning with no luck..
Seemed like a nice addition to the program...but kinda useless the way it stands...

Hi James,

The Theme Designer in PowerDirector 12 lets you fully customize all the existing Theme/Style templates, but not create your own from scratch.

The feature provides a lot more flexibility than the old Magic Movie feature.

PowerDirector 12 also claims to allow for editing text in the plug-in Theme Designer. You can only write a very short title that remains stationed. You cannot move it, change the font style, size, or color, making it useless for me to use.

Theme designer does not allow you to change the color, size or position of text. One template has light colored text on a white background making it almost unreadable. You cannot choose which inserts are videos or photos, that is chosen for you.

To say you can "fully customize all the existing Theme/Style templates" is total and complete rubbish.
