+Freeze frame a roll up and flash a title

I am building a slideshow and would like to add two effects. The first is I am using a scceen roll-up of text describing slides. When the roll reaches a certain point on the screen I would like to freeze it there until the end of the clip. Is that possible ?

The second effect is to have a title on a slide flash to bring attention to that part of the slide.

If anyone can help I would really appreciate it.

I tried what I think you want.  I put in a rolling title and played the timeline.  I stopped it.  From the Tools menu I picked Freeze Frame and selected Insert in Timeline. 

 

If I understand the second question, I would get the title working and shorten the duration.  Then duplicate the title a few times with gaps between duplications.    It may work best if you duplicate the title within the Media section to a Title 1, Title 2, etc as many as you need.

Thanks very much for the fast response. Tip number one got me to the right
area, thanks very much.
Could not make tip number two work for me but maybe I wasn't clear on what
I am trying to do.
I have a clip with a number of text boxes on it. I want to bring special
attention to one of those boxes by making it blink on and off. While the
clip is being displayed. Is that possible ?

I tried your suggestion again, regarding the flashing title and worked
worked great. I guess it was me that didn't understand your directions the
first time 🙂 Much appreciated
