Titles

FORscene titling has been upgraded. When images containing text are added to the overlay track, they appear on top of the video. FORscene works out which colours should be opaque, semi-transparent and transparent and automatically anti-aliases between them. In the latest upgrade, PNG graphics, which include a transparency mask, can also be overlaid on top of the video tracks. The PNG transparency mask is interpreted as a full 8 bit alpha channel, both in editing and publishing.
