Add and Delete a Scene

There are a number of ways to add and delete scenes to your DISE Movie. The easiest way is to use the Add and Delete buttons on the scene view. Another way to add a new scene is to import previously exported scenes. This is an easy way of moving scenes between DISE Movies. The options to import and export a Scene can be found under the Movie menu.

Drag and Drop Object onto a Scene

Add objects to scenes by drag-and-drop operations from the File browser or the Library tab. Below the map selector there are icons of the objects (image, video etc.) Click on an object to show information about it. To apply it to the working area, simply drag and drop the file.

Creating Objects on a Scene

If the desired object does not exist in your Library tab, create a new object. Change to the Objects tab, select the desired object and drag it out to the editing area.

Modifying Objects on a Scene

To modify an object, first click on the object you want to alter. The object will be marked by small black “handles” around it. The size, position and color of the object can be edited directly in the main screen with the help of the small handles and the color palette.

Common settings for all kinds of objects are collected in the Object Properties tab to the right of the edit area. If the Object Properties toolbox is not displayed, select View > Windows > Object Properties in the top menu.

Some object-specific features, such as font and text alignment will appear in a tool bar above the edit area. More advanced settings for an object can be altered by right-clicking and selecting the wanted feature from a sub-menu. The same features also appear in the Edit menu.

Playback of Scenes

To preview the scene, press the Play current scene button located in the top menu, or press button F11. It is also possible to preview some of the scenes, by selecting the scenes in the scene view and pressing the F10 button (Play selected Scenes). To play all scenes, press the Play all scenes button or click on the F9 button.

Scene Properties

Detailed settings about a scene can be specified on the scene properties window, which are shown in the Movie > Scene properties menu or via right-clicking a scene and select Scene properties.

Transitions

Transitions can be added between scenes. Select from a number of different transitions.
