I upgraded from EMC7 to EMC8 and can not find a certain feature known as StoryBuilder.  In EMC7 this feature allowed you to place introductions before your movie (slideshow) and credits afterwards.  You would save this as a complete production then burn a final DVD.

Where is the StoryBuilder feature?  No mention of it in the Help contents.  Thanks.

Story Builder was another name for Storyline in previous version of EMC.  It only showed up as that name, if you clicked on Make Slide Show.  You can find what you are looking for by opening VideoWave.

Thanks Grandpa - I figured that Storyline was the new StoryBuilder but Help only tells me how to use it - not where it is (specifically!)  I created my entire production in VideoWave and can't find the "before movie" and "after movie" (Storyline/StoryBuilder) effects.

What "before movie" and "after movie" effects are you looking for?  I am not sure that I understand.  I can tell you one thing, though.  Unfortunately, if you started a production in EMC 7 or 7.5 VideoWave, you will lose most, if not all, of the text effects and transitions, if you open that production in EMC 8 or EMC 9. :)
