  RE: Lines drawing
  @Turkana I haven't looked at your video yet, but please look at this tutorial about creating animated overlays using Xara Photo & Graphics Designer along with MEP. This is the tool that you want. Other than After Effects, I don't think that

  RE: Lines drawing
  I’d recommend you first check out the program Travel Maps which I think in your version is accessed from Edit, Wizards > Travel Route Animation. I don’t use it personally in my older version, MEP 2016, (preferring to make most of my route maps in

  RE: Lines drawing
  @Turkana Hi, For travel mapping, you've come to the right place. Terry and I do a lot of that. Forget the Single Point drawing thing; that was a fantasy to show that it could be done in MEP. You cannot draw anything in MEP, but you can in Photo

  RE: 'Layering' - Is there a way of doing this?
  @weedavy6969 Hi Davy. Yes. Basically that's it but masking may become a pain depending on what you are doing and clip positioning will need to change if you make one object go around another. It can get as complicated as you want but it can. A: Do

  'Layering' - Is there a way of doing this?
  Hi... I'm trying to achieve this effect. Inside the mouse hole is a green screened animated mouse that pops out and in. That looks good! Then I thought I'd add a tv into the 'hole' and have a something playing on it (removing the greenscreen effect

  @clinton-gadd Hi Clinton. Any effect you want to animate has to be animated in the Key Frame editor or the effect will remain static. You can adjust how many times the rotation happens and for how long by adding key frames. There are tutorials on

  RE: MAGIX Movie Edit Pro Premium (US) - Standalone System Activation
  Huh - so beware if you give software as a gift to someone. (While I suppose it's true that a warranty starts when one buys a tangible good, software is a different animal. Specifically, Magix knows exactly when the product is first used/activated.)
