The LiveType Interface

The LiveType interface consists of four primary
windows—the Canvas, the Inspector, the Media Browser,
and the Timeline.

 Canvas: This is where projects take shape. You use it to position text and objects,

create motion paths, and view the results as you design.

 Inspector: A toolbox of settings and parameters, including virtually every option for

building and customizing your titling creations.

 Media Browser: This area provides access to all the fonts, textures, objects, and effects

you’ll use to create your titles.

 Timeline: This is where you manage the frame-by-frame action of your titling

projects. Animation keyframes are created and adjusted in the Timeline, allowing you
to orchestrate the movement of your titling elements.
