Animation" dialog.
The transparent titles consist of the .cfx file and the associated AVI file which contains the animation
movie. The .cfx file contains the background transparency information. All AVI files are stored in
Documents and Settings\<User>\Local Settings\Application Data\Xara\Xara3D7\AVI_CFX (WIndows
XP) or Users\<User>\AppData\Local\Xara\Xara3D7\AVI_CFX (Windows 7 and Windows Vista).
The files must not be deleted or moved from there, otherwise the .cfx files will not work. However, the
.cfx files can be stored in the video project folder or anywhere else.
Note:
Substitute your own user name for <User> in the above file paths.
In the MAGIX slide show or video editing programs, the .cfx file has to be loaded via the Media Pool.
The Timeline Mode has to be active. Then you can drag the files into the timeline and they will be placed
on the title track automatically.
To use .cfx files in MAGIX programs, you need at least the following versions of the program: MAGIX
Movies on CD & DVD 6, MAGIX Xtreme Photostory on CD & DVD 6, MAGIX Movies2Go Version
2, MAGIX Movie Edit Pro 14.
