E4 Timeline help needed

[harveylexton]

I have a project on the timeline in e4 and it is fully edited, my problem is that when I call up quick tittler it takes up the whole timeline, how can I put in how long I need it.

It is a finger problem and I can't find out how to make it a certain length. It is something so simple I have missed it.

Also having trouble inserting transition, when I put in a dissolve the audio is not the same length as the video channel and is to one side of the cut. I have checked the settings. Something I have overlooked, I am not new to Edius I have been using E3 and now E4 this has just started to happen.

Can anyone please help

The way it works now, is that titles will conform to the timeline In/Out position by default, or, alternatively they will adhere to the default title length setting.

These options are controlled within the Application Settings dialog window.

Where in the applications settings is the title length, I can't seem to find it, my timeline is 3 hours 28 minutes, and that is the length of the title, I only require it for a 5 seconds

"Duration" I believe.

Thanks you are a good man, problem solved, I had the switch ticked to put the title between the in-out point.
Many thanks.
