• Add borders and change their type, color, and pattern.
• Use effects to start and end a page of titles.
• Make text scroll and crawl.
Each menu works the same way: If there are sub-menus, use MARK START to switch
between sub-menus. Then use the arrow keys to highlight your choice and press PLAY or
NEW LINE/OK to implement it.
Notes
• Background, Pattern, and Effect menus affect the entire page that contains the cursor.
Other menus affect the entire line that contains the cursor. You cannot mix characteris-
tics on a line.
• When you are editing text using the Editing Screen, several pages may be on the screen
at once (with page symbols between them). Note that the backgrounds and borders of
all the pages appear in the pattern and color of the page that contains the cursor. As
you move the cursor from one page to another, the patterns and colors used in the
entire screen will change. To see the patterns and color that are set for a particular page,
move the cursor to that page.
• Each page can use one type of pixel pattern and one type of rainbow pattern (see
Chapter 15). So, for example, if you set some letters to use rainbow pattern 11, then set
the background to use rainbow 14, both will
use 14.
• When you type something new, it will have
the same characteristics as the preceding let-
ter. If you want to type in a different style, use
the menu key to make a new choice and con-
tinue typing.
Superimposing Titles on
Video
To superimpose titles on video, change the background pattern to VIDEO (rather than a
solid color or pattern). Follow these steps:
• Position the cursor on the page that contains the titles you wish to superimpose.
• Press the BACKGROUND PATTERN menu button.
• Use MARK START to activate the top sub-menu. Use the RIGHT arrow key to highlight
the VIDEO symbol. Press NEW LINE/OK.
• Confirm that your video source is running (start the VCR or camcorder).
• Press PLAY.
The OUTPUT monitor will show your page of titles superimposed over the source video:
