  6. Transitions - Problem with Directions

    in PTE AV Studio 12 Beta

    Posted

    But I have the impression that the transitions already present in previous versions don't respond well when clicking on the buttons.
    The buttons are difficult to click, and the transition doesn't follow the desired direction on the screen.

    Hi Cor,

    Please let me know, do you see a wrong transition (from a different transition group) or an incorrect direction in the selected transition group? Does the problem appear in the small preview window, or do you see it after applying the transition to a project?

    Usually, the Project Options show a preview of only one of several selected directions (3 in your screenshot). And the Slide Options shows a preview specifically for the selected direction/option.

    Can you record a video of your screen to demonstrate the issue?

  8. How to use Smooth Move modifier for panoramas

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Hi,

    Smooth Move modifier was introduced in V11, but probably not everyone may know how useful it can be.

    This demo shows how the Smooth Move modifier improves animated panoramas when you change a direction of motion at a middle keyframe. Without the Smooth Move modifier, you'll see a sharp, unnatural break in the movement direction. With the Smooth Move modifier, the image smoothly changes trajectory with natural momentum, gently rounding the sharp corner.

    If you have 3 keyframes and a direction of motion changes at the 2nd keyframe (in the middle), you need to add the Smooth Move modifier to that 2nd keyframe. The "Smoothing (%)" parameter controls how much the motion is smoothed. I recommend to keep the default value 100%.

    Note that Smooth Move also creates smooth starts and stops, giving the motion a natural, momentum-based feel.

    If you're using simple motion between just 2 keyframes, use the Smooth speed modifier on the 1st keyframe instead. In this case, don't use Smooth Move.

    Download the demo project: Smooth Move modifier.zip

    Video example:

    Google doesn't allow the use of any screen filters on some system pages, for example: a blank page, web store for Chrome extensions, preferences of Chrome, etc.

  10. ScreenGrain - free Chrome extension for glossy/4K screens

    in Equipment & Software

    Posted

    Hi,

    I wrote a small free extension for Chrome browser.

    If your eyes get tired reading text on glossy monitors, or you find it hard to focus on smooth high-resolution screens (especially 4K displays) - this might help.
    The extension adds a barely visible pixel grain texture that gives your eyes something to focus on. Works great on Retina and high-DPI displays.

    It's completely free. I spent just one day making it during the weekend.
    Not related to PTE AV Studio, just sharing in case someone finds it useful.

  13. Quick Search in Styles and Transitions in V12

    in PTE AV Studio 12 Beta

    Posted

    Hi,

    In PTE AV Studio 12, we've included a new function - Quick Search in the Slide Styles window and Transitions window.

    This allows you to quickly find or filter the desired transition or style by name, category, or author name.

    PTE AV Studio remembers your choice during the current session, independently for styles and transitions.

    You can hide the Quick Search bar in Preferences > Templates tab by unticking the "Search in styles and transitions" option.

  15. Audio problem in transitions [SOLVED]

    in PTE AV Studio 12 Beta

    Posted

    On 12/28/2025 at 1:24 PM, jienense said:

    When I added sound to the first transition, everything was fine, but once I added sound to the second transition, the sound from both transitions played in all of them, even in those where I hadn't added sound yet.
    If I added sound to the third transition, all three sounds played in every transition.

    We fixed this issue in Beta 2 today. Please try the new Beta.

  23. Gradient map effect in V12

    in PTE AV Studio 12 Beta

    Posted

    Hi,

    In PTE AV Studio 12 we added a new Gradient map effect mode for a Mask container.
    You can create dynamic effects using a grayscale image (grayscale is the better term here).

    Download a demo project: Gradient map effect.zip

    Video example:

     
    Explanation how it works:  

    1. Add a Mask Template. Choose Mask mode as "Gradient map".
    2. We provided one preset "Spots" with customizable parameters. You can add a grayscale picture as a stencil for this effect.
    3. Adjust the "Width %" parameter in the Properties for a Mask Container which controls the smoothness of edges.
    4. Add the 2nd keyframe for a Mask container and change the Opacity parameter to create a dynamic animation. This effect works when the Opacity changes from 0% to 100% for a Mask container.

  24. Stuttering Pans

    in Troubleshooting

    Posted

    Hi Andrew,

    Can you send me the project (the full project archive in ZIP format)? A link in a personal message. I'll check the problem.
    I don't know your PC's specifications, but the project is likely too large due to large images (large pixel size).

    Alternative solution is to create a MP4 video, this will completely solve the problem.
