Is this not possible?

Also, can I apply a texture to multiple lines? For example, a texture that fades from white at the top to red at the bottom. If I have multiple lines in a single node, the texture is placed across the ENTIRE block, not each line of text.

Here's what I did to recreate the issue I am seeing in 5.1.1.71. I made a very "simple" scene that has a 2D image layer (which is full screen) and a 3D layer, that has the same image colored differently but also full screen. I added a mover to fade the 3D image on/off. If I create a new sc...

I have a TTF font in a scene I created in Ventuz 4. Simple Block Text node. No warnings/etc when the scene loads in Ventuz 4 and it displays correctly. If I try loading that same font file into a new scene in Ventuz 5 (or even the existing scene from V4), I get an error message saying "Unable t...

Using a ShrinkToFit node on an Enriched Text Block trashes the style when actively shrinking the text.

Attached example shows how it changes a black drop shadow to the color of the text.

Is there a way to apply a texture to 2D text on a character by character basis? Say for instance I have a simple 100x100 pixel texture that goes from red in the center to blue at the outside. Can I map this texture to each character in a Text2D node? I've already tried modifying the scaling and UV p...

Is it possible to reposition a directional light with a piece of 3D text? For example, say I have a very simple scene with a single word of 3D text with a beveled face at the bottom of the screen. I have it lit with a directional light source pointing slightly down. If I move that text to the top of...

For future reference, the solution was to use an Alpha Blending node with the associated Quicktime.

I'm having an issue getting the proper fill out of a Quicktime Animation. I'm using a broadcast license and an AJA Kona SDI board that outputs both the fill and key. The Quicktime has a fill that is a gradient from white to black. The key is grey, which make it semi-transparent. The fill should pass...

Can Presenter be quit in a more elegant way than killing it in Task Manager? Can it be done via Remoting or some key sequence?

It looks like I may have solved the problem by importing the font into the project. I had been successfully referencing other fonts by name without the need to import them and never thought this might be the issue.
