Jazz up your Storyboard by adding title screens and overlaying text to your photos. Text cannot be overlayed onto a video clip.

To add text on a photo
Click on the blue Create Title button on the lower left of the Library area, or click on the Edit file menu bar and select Create Title Image.

Once the Create Title Image window opens, you will be able to preview how and where the text lines will appear in your final image. Select the title line(s) you would like to use and type in your text.

 The Title Line 1 text space will place text in the top center of the photo.

 The Title Line 2 text space will place text in the middle center of the photo.

 The Title Line 3 text space will place text in the bottom center of the photo.

You can choose one of the text lines or all three. Each line can contain up to 32 characters or spaces.

To select your text color

  Click on the colored box under the phrase

“Text color.”

 Select one of the basic colors, or choose to Define Custom Colors by using the color

palette.

To select the font style and size, click the Font and Size drop down arrow buttons. The font style, size and color will be the same for all three lines of text.

The Background Color will automatically default to the photo you selected originally. To use a color background instead of the photo image as a background, uncheck the small box next to “Use current photo,” then click in the box under “Background Color.” Now select the background color of your choice.

Once you have completed overlaying text on the photo, click OK to save or Cancel to close the window. The newly edited photo will appear in your Library immediately following the original photo, with a pencil icon in the lower right corner . The original photo file will not be changed.
