  RE: Collage plays but not showing in Timeline or Storyboard
  Thanks John. I have tried removing a single photo and then 3 to 4 photos that are where the collage is playing over them. All that seems to do is move the collage along to the next photo and plays over that. The collage is not visible anywhere in

  RE: Collage plays but not showing in Timeline or Storyboard
  @westdt HI Unfortunately your screen shot is barely legible even when viewed at full size. I can see from the Preview monitor that there is indeed a collage present, and the timeline cursor is on a single image. What happens to the collage when you

  Hi John, thanks for your further advice. My apologies, I am actually in Timeline view (forgot that when the screen shows 'Storyboard' on the RH side that's what you can switch to, not the viewing mode you are in). This screenshot is the view I am

  RE: Collage plays but not showing in Timeline or Storyboard
  @westdt Hi, You have to use Timeline mode to see the tracks. Do not use Storyboard mode except for putting together a simple project or moving objects around. As soon as you get into anything more complicated, you have to use Timeline mode or you

  Thankyou both emmrecs and johnebaker for responding. Jeff, I have tried to stop the movie at that exact spot, and even with zooming in, I still can't view that collage that is playing over the other photos. Actually, I've found I have two more

  @westdt Have you tried playing the project back whilst using the Timeline view and stopping it at the exact point where this phantom collage appears? Then zoom in on the timeline. That should reveal the unwanted item which can then be deleted. In

  Collage plays but not showing in Timeline or Storyboard
  I have Photostory Deluxe V17.1.4.152. In my current project, I have a 6 photo collage. This collage seems to have suddenly disappeared from view in both Timeline and Storyboard, yet still plays in the movie. It also plays in place of the photos that

  RE: Is my result a typical benchmark? (UHD 630 HW encode)
  @pmikep Hi . . . . The 3 minute clip, with nothing done to it, took 1 minute to encode. . . . . Assuming the export was MP4 h.264 at the same resolution, then that is, IMO, a very good rate of 90 fps - I have tested a similar resolution project on

  RE: Crossfade from a collage to an animated picture
  @johnebaker You're quite right! Is this something relatively new, or have I missed it all along? I normally don't use the button to make X-fades, dragging instead. And, I don't often use collages except ones made by me. The drag method does not make

  Crossfade from a collage to an animated picture
  I have a collage clip that should be cross-fading into a picture clip but for some reason the collage is not fading which results in no transition between the clips. This seems to be happening whenever I use a collage. I see the crossfade transition
