Settings
The fade settings enable the behavior and appearance of the 3D fades to be
influenced. Click the corresponding fade symbol for the object and choose "Settings"
to do this.
You have the following options:
Anti-Aliasing: A bothersome jagged edge sometimes appears on the borders of 3D
objects. Anti-aliasing reduces this effect, but also requires more computer power. The
setting applies globally to all 3D fades, switching on anti-aliasing during 3D fades has
the effect that all other 3D fades are also affected by this setting.
Mirror X / Y: You can change the movement trajectory of 3D objects inside the fade.
The option "X-axis mirror" mirrors the movement of the object horizontally (along the
X-axis). The option "Y-axis mirror" mirrors the movement of the object vertically
(along the Y-axis).
3D series
The 3D series are a further development of 3D fades (view page 101), where the
transitions are thematically sorted. For instance, you can let photos pop up and
disappear on a notice board or make it look as if the photos were hung on the walls of
a gallery.
You have the following options to open 3D sequences for photos or scene transitions:
• In Media Pool, click on "Fades" > "Spatial Fades" > "3D Sequences". Select the
desired 3D series and drag it onto the first scene or image transition where the
3D series should start.
You can select how many of the subsequent fades should be replaced by the 3D
series in the dialog.
Search for gaps
MAGIX Video Pro X5 enables you to locate gaps between objects where no image
material is located. This hinders unintentional black spots from appearing. This option
is located under "Edit -> Find gaps". A corresponding dialog opens.
Optimize view: Zooms to the selected gap.
Mark gap as range: Spans a section over the selected gap.
Edit selected gaps: The selected settings are applied but no additional action is taken.
Keyboard Shortcut: Ctrl + Shift + C
