X Position value won't go past -32768.0

[zesty_intelligence1641]

I'm making a post with a long (really long) piece of text I want to move across the screen. The trouble is premiere pro won't let me set the x position value to anything past -32768.0. Why is this the case, and is there a bypass for it?

Mod note: The sentiment is appreciated, but the profanity is removed. Thanks for understanding.

You cannot go beyond, 32.768 either way.

The maximum frame size to import still images and movies is 256 megapixels, with a maximum dimension of 32,768 pixels in either direction. For example, an image that is 16,000×16,000 pixels is acceptable, as is one that is 32,000×8,000, but an image that is 35,000×10,000 pixels cannot be used. Please use After Effects if you need to work with files bigger then 256 megapixels.

Joost,

I'll  just note that I think what Kieran is using is simply text, not an image file. But it is also clear that whether from an image or simply a bunch of text, PR will not work with positioning coordinates that are larger than the maximum frame size.

And according to this, AE is limited to 30Kx30K, image and composition:

As a workaround, I'd consider duplicating the text (assuming there's not a limit to how many characters you can put into a text layer!), then offset it and fade between layers.

Intrigued by just how long that text is Kieran! lol.

Yes, Ae has a limitation too, but you can parent two images together and work around the issue in Ae.
