- AV Professional does not have a specific transition to do this.
-
- You can simulate it using AmigaVision's Text/Variable objects. Text/Variable
- objects will hold one line of text each. These objects can be assigned a path.
- This means you can make the line of text follow a path up the screen. You can
- have several of them moving up the screen at the same time.
-
- Using Text/Var objects with paths will not give you that very smooth
- scrolling that you would see from a real transition.
