  acraswwell, I think you must have set up a key frame animation where the amount of zoom varies with time. Search under 'keyframe' in the help file for a full description. The current effects should be listed along the bottom of each

  RE: How do you get sharp text in MEP15 Pro when zooming past the text?
  Hi, You can do it in several ways. Staying with the basic approach you're using, there are several points, but the key one is the first: 1. Set your text font to a large value. (I used Arial Black size 100 in the demo below.) 2. Carefully

  Fantastic work thanks! I shall give it a go when I get home. I have version 16 but I assume most of the things are fairly similar. I'm quite new to some of the terminology like "key frames" so I need to do a bit of background reading. Anyway
