VIDEONICS TITLEMAKER 2000
Chapter 5 • Using the Demo
The built-in demo is a convenient way to learn what the unit can do.
Using the Demo
To display the TitleMaker 2000's built-in demo, turn the unit on and press
the DEMO key. The OUTPUT monitor will display a series of titles that
describe the unit's features and applications and demonstrates the kind of
effects you can generate. Press any key to end the demo.
Running the demo does not erase any titles you have entered.
International Demo
Press SHIFT + DEMO to display a demo that minimizes the use of English
language text. This demo is designed for international use.
Locked Demo
Normally, pressing any key will end the demo. If the demo is running in a
display and you want to prevent passers-by from accidentally ending the
demo, hold COMMAND as you start the demo (COMMAND + DEMO for
the English language demo; COMMAND + SHIFT + DEMO for the interna-
tional version). This will start a locked demo. Only the COMMAND + DEMO
or COMMAND + SHIFT + DEMO key combination will stop it.
Using the Demo as a Guided Tour
The demo makes extensive use of TitleMaker 2000's features and includes
several clever tricks for making interesting titles. You can study the demo in
detail by copying it into the Editing Screen. To do this, press COMMAND +
SHIFT + COPY. This creates a new project which contains the English-
language demo. (You can copy the international demo by pressing COM-
MAND + SHIFT + MOVE.) You can then use the cursor to tour the demo. You
can view the menu settings used on any line. Position the cursor in the line,
press each menu key, and observe the settings.
Note that the demos are quite large and it is a good idea to delete all
unneeded titles before copying a demo in. If the memory warning symbol
appears when you attempt to copy the demo, it means
memory is full. Part of the demo may have been success-
fully copied but you will have to delete some text before
you can copy the whole demo.
