3. Set the “Message Format”.
Set the display direction of text, font and text color.
1) Next to “Orientation”, select the display direction of text.
2) To change the font, click [Select Font] and choose a font
from the [Font] dialog box.
• You must have the same font installed on the target PC.
• Depending on the type of font used, text size may not be acquired correctly resulting in scrolling
being interrupted.
3) Set the “Text Color.”
In the [Color] dialog box that appears when clicking the rectangle in which a color is displayed, the color
can be changed.
4) Select “Decoration” from the “None,” “Bordering,” or “Shadowing” option button.
If “Bordering” or “Shadowing” is selected, the text color can be changed in the [Color] dialog box that
appears when clicking the rectangle of “Decoration Color”.
4. Set “Background.”
Set the background of scroll messages.
1) Set “Background Color.”
The color can be changed in the [Color] dialog box that
appears when clicking the rectangle in which a color is
displayed.
2) Checking the “Use Transparent” check box allows you to make the background color transparent.
Drag the “Rate” slider to the left or right to set the transparency (10 steps available).
• Do not check the check box when you do not want to make the background color transparent.
Even if the slider is set to opaque at the right end, the background does not become completely
non-transparent.
• When the check box is checked, the color set for the background itself is made transparent.
Therefore, if “Text Color” and “Decoration Color” are the same as “Background Color,” “Text Color”
and “Decoration Color” are also made transparent.
• If transparent/semi-transparent scroll messages are located on a video, the desired effect may not
be obtained.
