Terms in this set (12)

How do you open the Titles Browser?
In the toolbar in the upper-right corner of the Timeline, click the Titles Browser button.
How do you insert a title between two clips in the Timeline?
Drag a title from the Titles Browser to edit point between the clips. Alternatively, you can insert a title by positioning the playhead where you want to insert the title, selecting the title in the Browser, and clicking pressing W.
How would you superimpose a lower third title over a Timeline clip in the primary storyline?
In the Titles Browser, double-click a title thumbnail. The title is connected over the clip at the playhead position in the primary storyline.
How do you change the text in a title in your Timeline?
In the Viewer, double-click to highlight the text. Type your new text and press Esc.
How do you display the title safe and action safe zones?
Choose View > Show Title/Action Safe Zones.
How do you adjust the color of a title?
Select a title in the Timeline and click the Inspector button in the toolbar. Click the Title button at the top of the pane that appears. Click the color tile to open the Colors window and choose a new color.
How would you reposition a title in the Viewer?
In the Viewer, select the text you want to move, and then drag the position button.
What is an easy way to find a specific title in the Timeline?
Open the Timeline Index and click the Titles button. When the list of titles appears, click the appropriate title. The playhead moves to the title and automatically selects it.
How can you find and replace specific text in a title, for example in a long credit roll?
Select the clip and choose Edit > Find and Replace Title Text. In the window that appears, enter the text to find in the Find field and the replacement text in the Replace field. In the "Search in" pop-up menu, choose Selected Title, and then click Replace All.
What happens when you double-click a generator in the Generators Browser?
Because generators are often used as backgrounds, double-clicking a generator clip inserts it into the primary storyline. This differs from a title, where double-clicking a title clip connects it to a primary clip.
Why would you use a Placeholder generator instead of a gap clip?
A gap clip can simply reserves a specific duration in the Timeline. A placeholder lets you enter information about the missing clip such as framing, how many people will be in the scene, the background, whether it is an interior shot, a night or day scene, and how many people will be in the scene. You can also add specific notes.
How do you assign an image to a drop zone in a theme?
In the Inspector, click a drop zone and then click the image in the Event Browser. In the "Select a Source Clip" window that appears, click Apply Clip.
