RE: [Avid-L2] Re: Marquee anyone?

Dear Marianna,

Thanks I checked out the guide and when you look at the fine print it looks
like Marquee has not changed in a bit for quite some time. A shame as it is
a very powerful text tool.

If you have any more info on the subject or can point me to some more info I
would be grateful.

The 4.0 guide says the following.

Avid Marquee Title Tool User's Guide . 0130-06781-01 Rev. A. December 2004

The 3.5 Guide says

Avid Marquee Title Tool User's Guide . 0130-06781-01 Rev. A. December 2004

The 2.0 Guide says

Avid Marquee Title Tool User's Guide . 0130-06781-01 Rev. A. December 2004

And before that there is no description on the web site of what version this
should be, but it too says

Avid Marquee Title Tool User's Guide . 0130-06781-01 Rev. A. December 2004

I did not go back any further as you all know what it will say.

P.S. if anyone knows how to write scripts for this program I would like any
info you can provide.

P.P.S it looks like the Avid fired the documentation team a long time ago.

Jason

Jason,

Got your email and I should have a contact for you in engineering land
tomorrow. BTW there is a new Marquee Guide for 4.0/8.0 on the Knowledge
Base.

Stand by and I will email you back tomorrow.

in about 5 years from the looks of things or maybe this is just the program,
anyway here it is.
