Question

Controlling start and end of title roll up

I am using the default roll up title clip in a curent slideshow I am building. I have extended the rollup time to 40secs which allows time to properly read the text. The only issue is several seconds go by before the scroll appears on the screen and also at the end there is a few seconds of black screen after the roll up has left the screen.

Is there a way to adjust the start / stop timing ?

Forgot to mention I am using Premiere Elements 2019.   Any ideas would be much appreciated

 

Best Regards   Alex

You do of course need to have enough rolling text that it won't just fit on one static screen

how we should use the options Easy-in, Easy-out and Post-roll to control the scrolling titles ?
What that options mean ?

I have found the solution to my problem, thanks for the tips that got me looking in right direction.

With my timeline displayed I double clicked on the title slide. Make sure you can see the rectangular guidelines

around your text, on the preview screen.

At this point go up to the top of the screen and select Text from the tabs displayed. on the drop down menu that appears select Roll/Crawl and the adjusts will appear.

Are you sure?  I did that and the "rolling" text appeared stationary for the whole clip.

After UN-check both Start Off Screen and End Off Screen:

>preroll & postroll are both zero

 

That is not what you need to do... you have to UN-check both Start Off Screen and End Off Screen

With the title open in Title Adjustments (double-click on it), go to the program's Text menu and select Roll/Crawl Options.

One learns something every day!   However preroll & postroll are both zero on my system & it still takes several seconds for text to start appearing.

 

I've been getting by by having the "Default Roll" clip on video 2 (usually have a still photo on video 1 as background) and having the roll clip start a few second earlier!
