Importing graphic files
You can import 24- or 32-bit graphic files in Aurora Edit and Aurora Edit LD, which
you can use in the graphics track of your sequence.
You can also superimpose a bitmap (with an alpha key) over the video in your clip.
Imported graphics appear in your Bin.
1. Choose File | Import | Graphic .
The Import Graphics window appears.
2. Navigate to the graphic you want to import and select it.
3. Resize the image, if necessary, by checking the Size to Fit or Center boxes.
It is recommended that the Auto Detect Sequential Files checkbox be left
unchecked unless you are working with sequential TGA files. Leaving the
checkbox checked prevents the importation of more than one graphic at a time.
4. Click Open .
A progress bar indicates the import status.
The imported graphic appears in the Bin; you can bring it onto the Timeline on the
Graphics (G) track.
You can also import a graphic directly to the Timeline by choosing File | Import |
Graphic while the Timeline window is currently selected.
NOTE: For Aurora LD, this is the same functionality as the high-resolution Aurora Edit,
but Aurora Edit LD must import the file into a directory that is has access to. If it is not
attached to the hi-res volume (V), then it must import to a directory that it has access to.
