Key Features

• Work with CPU+GPU, fully takes advantage of multi-core technology.
• Support standard UNICODE text.
• Smooth and accurate floating point based transformation plus easy of up/down-conversion.
• Advanced anti-aliasing and anti-flicker techniques.
• All text and graphics can be shaped with Bezier curves, which makes it easy to add/delete/adjust curve points. This is extremely useful in designing the customized shapes and graphic combinations.
• Innovative Boolean operations with objects (add, subtract, union and intersect).
• Unlimited Face, Edge, Depth, and Shadow elements combinations.
• Simply to create different styles, such as neon, 3D, multi-edge, multi-shadow, bevelled, etc. and thanks to the powerful engine, all the titles are rendered as vectors. This allows the user to alter and transform the titles without ruining the original information
• Unlimited object groups. Positioning, scale, rotation, adjusting pivot and shearing are still available after grouping.
• Many alignment styles. Support applying different settings to different elements, from a single character to a paragraph. Support for path text and deformation with curves.

Effects

• Fully key-frameable positioning, scaling, rotation and effects adjustments in a true 3D space
• Fully key-frameable GPU- accelerated effects
• All effects are rendered in realtime, such as page rolls, ripples, explosion, lens flare, light stripes, etc.
• Animated In/Out by a single character, line or all text
• Customized In/Out styles, such as Loop, slow-motion, masking, underlay, 3D scroll and more
• Support dynamic texture on any text with unique GPU rendering engine
