Hey, sorry for not getting back to you sooner.nnYou could create a graphic template and do the text in a seperate title. Not sure what exactly you’re trying to do, so I’m not sure I can wrap my head around this.

Nice trick,nthank you.nI used to make it with a template ni got an animated lower third backround and created a template withnthe titler.nTo keep all animation, i created a template sequence to c+p in my master timeline,nthen i opend the title tool from within the timeline to change the text by c+p from a text file.nnthe autotitler saves a lot of time, but how do i get the created titels into my animated template without rebuilding fade in and out and position animation ervery time?

Yes, you'll have to redo all the titles with the changed design. It's
a pain, I know. If you have animated the title in Effect Editor, you
can either save the effect to a bin and apply it to the new title
after cutting it into the timeline or just overwrite key and fill of
the original title with key/fill of the new title. This way, you can
retain your original animation.

Is it possible after doing that to automatically change the font on all title, if the Art director don't like the font? Or you have to redo everything by hand? And what if you animate it and have to redo it? You save your animate effect and apply it after replacing the title in the timeline?

This would have saved me so much time in the past. I need to integrate this into my workflow. Thanks

Christian,
That has to be the coolest thing I've learnt about Avid in a while…
Thanks for posting. Although I have a number of reservations about Marquee as a tool – mainly is woeful scripts and render – and with many more better Titlers out there – Heroglyph and dare I say Boris – this has actually restored some of my faith.
Keep up the great work.
