You also know how to modify the envelope parameters as you've already seen in the "Tuto-5 Creating effects". But in the transition 191-france, if you change the name of a city, it will no longer be in the right place on the map of France. So, it will be necessary to change the city's name and move it to the correct place on the map.
- I suggest replacing BORDEAUX by MARSEILLE.
|
 |
- In the FX tree panel, select the plugin Text3D 1 (below BORDEAUX).
|
 |
- In the Display Properties, in paragraph Text3D, replace the BORDEAUX text by MARSEILLE.
|

|
- The change is made but the city of Marseilles is not in the correct location on the map, so we have to move it.
|
- To move it:
- 1 - In the FX tree panel, select the BORDEAUX object,
- 2 - Hide the album (if not already hidden) to display the envelope window,
- 3 - In the Display Properties, in paragraph position, click one of the X, Y or Z parameters. (This action will reveal the envelope for MARSEILLE highlighted),
- 4 - Finally, on the second keyframe. move the cursor to the intermediate value of the envelope 38% of the duration of the transition.
|

- Click on move button to select the move option.
|
 |
- With the mouse, click and drag MARSEILLE to the the correct position (use the left mouse button).
|
 |
- Copy the new keyframe by clicking on the corresponding button (copy image).
|
 |
- Move the cursor and click on the NEXT button. The cursor will be placed on the following keyframe, ie at the end of the transition.
|
 |
- When the cursor is at the end of the transition, you are going to copy the second keyframe into the third keyframe by clicking PASTE KEYFRAME button.
|
 |
All that remains is for you to admire your handiwork:

Easy ...? {Thanks to Mark K for translation and Loosecannon for the fine tuning} |
