Here's a step by step procedure to create the problem.

Put a still picture on the video track.
Double click on the still picture to open the 'pan and zoom' window.
Put a checkmark in 'start to finish'.
Set an end value.
Close.
Click on the 'T' to open the title overlay window.

The 'title overlay' window will open and imediately switch back to the 'pan from start to finish' window.
You have to remove the 'pan and zoom' before you can do the title overlay.

There are some other work arounds, but this demonstrates the problem.

Don,

 I couldn't reproduce this on S12/Vista nor on S11/Vista. I click on the title and it automaticaly adds to the timeline. I don't get the P&Z window again.

Im also having a hard time reproducing it. I've used several JPEGs and BMPs but they all work the way that they should. I also tried with background rendering on and off.

I think I've seen something like this before...Do what Don says, except don't "close".  If you click on the "T" with the pan-n-zoom dialog still up, I think it'll briefly show the title dialog before switching back to the pan-n-zoom dialog again.  Maybe what he's seeing is some sort of variation on that theme?

Don, what do you think?  Similar?

 

That's exactly what I'm seeing.

For those of you who tried, be sure you are clicking on the "T" for the overly title and not the "T" for the title menu. It's the "T" on the second page of the video tools.

There you go. Reproduced. Will bring this up. Thanks guys.
