[Avid-L2] Re: Title tool colors

No it's limiting illegal levels just like it does over the main program but it's not adjusting levels. If you actually do a color correction in symphony on a matte key it only effects the foreground whether you step in or not. In media composer it's different and it would be a color effect effecting all the video like you are saying. For media composer you have to step in. That's why auto nesting the title with a limit is the quick and dirty, although not too dirty for my simple white titles, fix.

It was curious I had one title that behaved properly until I reassigned a 100% color to the foreground. I saw your post from this thread and figured I'd add my ire to it. The only solution that is practical for me is to add a safe color limit to each title. Is there a more elegant solution for the time being? This is a HUGH FING PROBLEM THAT HAS PUCKERED MY NETHERLANDS!!!!!
