I used the rotation tool in the Pip designer, but once the video produced, the top and bottom had ridged marks due to the rotation. How exactly do I parallel out a horizon without it ridging out on me? Please help...

I was also testing out a transparent text, which can conveniently be found here:

Hello,

Try zooming in just a little, or resizing the video, so that the outer edges of the video are not visible. If you rotated the video, that means there are pixels in the preview window that are now blank. To get rid of them, you will need to zoom in (resize the video in the preview window) a touch.

figured that was one method, but after zooming in and filling the whole screen, can i manually add in black bars?

Thank you for replying^

Hi,

Sure. Just use black color boards, by placing them on a lower track in the timeline. You can find them in the "Media Content" menu.

To place the color boards precisely on the preview window, I would suggest zooming out. See attached image.

Let me know if that's what you meant or have other questions.
