Hi all,

Since a few days now, when I write a text in the graphic interface, it become invisible as soon as I move the text. In the reconnect viewer, I'm on top timeline.

To view my text, I have to move the cursor on the clip but if I move the text again, it become invisible...

I'm a little lost..

in the GFX properties is the "timespan" set to "start to end"?  sounnds like maybe it's set to "this frame only"?

Thanks dermot.

I find the answer. In the graphics properties / options - the alpha channel was set on AUTO. Set to PREMULTIPLIED and the graphics come back to life!

(and yes autospan was set to "this frame only"

Actually I have another trouble. For some reason, when I create a text in graphics mode, DS set the timespan to "this image only" and the mask with no alpha checked.... where can I set it one for all?

try;

set up GFX the way you like it, and then save the preset with a new name into your custom folder, and drop that into a toolbar, then use that rather than the standard preset.. that's what i do with alot of presets

Set all of your required options (timespan, channels, shadows, colours etc) before creating your text box and every subsequent text box will have the same settings.

Thanks guys. It finally works. I used to work with Marquee, that's a different stuff!
