Hi all,

New to PowerDirector 365.

A simple question. I have an image - I want it to stretch, horizontally from the centre to full width. Is there any way to do this?

Many thanks,

Mike

G'day Mike -

Yes - it's just a matter of keyframing position and scale.

Here are a couple of examples on DirectorZone: Concertina Open & Concertina Close (and yes - I realise it's an accordion, not a concertina)

If you download them & open in PiP Designer, you'll see how the keyframes have been set. If your image is 16:9, you'll be able to simply copy & paste keyframe attributes from the template to your image.

Cheers - Tony
