Inserting a text
This is the way you create all your objects. Click where you wish to place the top left corner of the object and hold the mouse button down, while moving the mouse to the bottom right corner of your object. For some of the objects a dialog appears in which you must specify which file (picture and bumpmap) you wish to use.
In the properties dialog for the Headline object you select the font, color etc. You can resize the Headline object by pulling the handles. Selecting Effects In the timeline at the bottom of the screen you see five actions. These five actions (Animate, Show, Hide, Animation Effect, and Exit) are the foundation for all documents created with MatchWare Visual GIF Animator.
The Show dialog appears.
You have now "programmed" that MatchWare Visual GIF Animator shows your text scrolling in from the right side of the screen. In order for you to be able to see the effect of the Show action, you must first hide the text. Right Click the Headline object, and deselect Show Object. The Headline object is still there, only it is now invisible. Now you can test the document to see, how your show effect looks. Select Test | Run from the main menu or click the test button MatchWare Visual GIF Animator
