Hi, just did some more testing and noticed that also image clips (see the link below) with transparent background can't be placed on top of all. It just interact with the track below, which is indeed a wanted behaviour ;) ....... www.groovision.de/kdenlive/includedintotransition.jpg (I hope this screensot can clarify the situation) .... but a common requirement is to show a title, image, .... on top of all (e.g. like credits, logo, ...) So, perhaps this might be classified as a real problem and should be solved before the upcomming release IMHO ... greetings reinhard |

Transitions will for sure require some work, as they currently are quite hard to understand unless you know how the video frameworks is designed. You can solve your problem by adding a wipe transition to the title or image clip that should be on top of the tracks. Just leave the start and end centered, so that it will not move, and change the transition target track (in the combobox labelled "Perform transition with") so that it is applied on the lowest track. I attached a screenshot so that you can understand better. I know it is not very intuitive, but at least you can do it. I will not change this before 0.4 release. regards jb |

It works fine for the title clip and in the beginning of the image clip .... www.groovision.de/kdenlive/title1.jpg www.groovision.de/kdenlive/title2.jpg www.groovision.de/kdenlive/image1.jpg .... but don't work at the end of the image clip. www.groovision.de/kdenlive/image2.jpg I just tried to use track 2 for the image clip, but nothing changed. any idea ? greetings reinhard |

I moved the out point to the left ... www.groovision.de/kdenlive/image3_shortenclipintrack3.jpg ... and now it works as purposed. greetings reinhard |
