Aspect ratio: The aspect ratio describes the relationship between the height and width of the image. If an image deviates from the set aspect ratio of the project, you can decide here how the image should be displayed. |
Alignment: Determines the position of the image on the screen. |
Rotate in motion direction: If you give the image a motion path, after activating this option the image will automatically rotate to match the motion path. See the chapter "Motion paths with rotations" for more information. |
Adding or recording sound for an image If the image is associated with a sound or you want to add a sound, you can specify the settings here.
|
Duration: By clicking on Duration, you can adjust the display duration of the image to the duration of the sound. |
Volume: Determines the playback volume of the sound. |
Maximize volume: The volume of the stored sound is increased until the loudest part corresponds to 100%. |
Fade background music: You can determine whether, while the sound is playing, the background music volume should be faded down/down. This can prevent spoken commentary from being drowned out by the background music. |
Start position: If you do not want the stored sound to be played from the beginning, you can "trim" it by entering a value at the beginning. |
Continue shortened sound after set duration: With this option, the image can have a shorter duration than the sound. The sound will continue to play over the coming frames until it is finished. |
Fade shortened sound after set duration - Even if the sound duration is longer than the image duration, the sound will be faded out together with the image. |
