Style editing is done in visual manner. The first step is to select the style type in Style type combo box (you may create Title, Song, and Credit styles). Once you select the style type Current style combo box is filled with available styles of the selected type.

 

There are two types of styles -- system (predefined) styles and user-defined styles. Predefined styles have * in front of their names and cannot be altered.

 

Once you select a style from the Current style combo box the style preview will be displayed in Preview window. Also fields available for the selected style type will be displayed on Available styles list. Each of the style types has different fields.

 

For Title and Credit styles you may change the background image, colors, and define the position and properties of text fields. To change the position of the text field select it on the Available fields list. The field will be displayed as a light blue rectangle on the preview area. Use mouse to change the position. You may also change the font, color, and alignment of the text fields.

 

Song style does not have a text field, but has lyrics field. You may define the properties of the lyrics using Lyrics properties button.

 

pro only Note: The next paragraph applies to Pro version only.

 

When using background image for text style you need to remember that lyrics cannot overlap with any part of graphics. Also please make sure that the background color selected in Background color exactly matches the lyrics area color. If this is not the case the lyrics will not be displayed properly.

 

Note: We recommend that you prepare your images so they are of 288x192 resolution and have no more than 14 colors for title and credits, and 8 colors for lyrics background.
