Adding Titles

[chriscanada]

can Roxio 9 add titles to photos in slideshow the same way MS Photostory does?

You mean add text to still images? Yes. Do the slideshow in Videowave.

You can also do it in Slide Show Assistant, if you must. Use the one under the photo tab on the home page. It is a three step process. If you start there, the last step will allow you to do the final editing in VideoWave. Don't use the Assistant from MyDVD; some people have reported problems with disappearing text with that two step process.

 

In this Assistant, select the image you want to add the text to and then click on the A+ icon near the top of the screen.

 

Hint: Make sure that your text in inside the TV safe zone - not at the bottom of an image. Keep it about 20% above the bottom and away from the sides. You will be able to see the TV safe zone in VideoWave by clicking on the icon that looks like a squared off target or gun sight. You can do the final adjustments there.

 

Or as Jess said, do the slide show in VideoWave to start with.

 

Hint: Add the text to the internal track of the image so if you want to move the images around, the text will stay with the image.

Actually, I used the 3-step Slideshow Assistantin some instances and for the last step, as you indicated above, I edited it in Videowave. There are some themes/styles in the Assistant that I like.
