Hello,
Please a newbie question...
I have a gen media text on black bg.
I have the comp. mode set to Source Alpha.
When I bring up track motion and dock pview window I become confused.
I have 4 key frames,
z pos = 1500 on keyframe 1
z pos = 0 on keyframe 2 and 3 ( so it may be read)
z pos = -1200 on keyframe 4

So it flyoff the screeen, but when I go to 16:9 aspect I still have artifacts.
Any Idea's?
Thank you,
Marty

Was it 16:9 when you set up the keyframes? Because the keyframes won't stretch from the 4:3 to 16:9 if you set them up first, and then switch the format to widescreen.
Also, what are your project settings at?

Hello and thank you,
That was it, I had set the test project to: 0.9091 (NTSC DV) 4:3, and then streched them to 16:9 so the artifacts appeared in the safe area. Sorry to be so slow, trying hard but still information overload.
Thank you so much for the great answer.
Best Wishes,
Marty
