Adding and applying generic filter tracks

Before you add a generic filter track, add the video track or picture track that you want to apply the generic filter to.

To insert a generic filter:

1. Drag a Generic Filter Track icon from the QuickTime set  of the Objects palette to the bottom of the track list area of the Timeline Editor.
2. Select the generic filter sample in the track content area of the Timeline Editor. (If necessary, expand the text track to display the samples.)
3. In the Generic Filter Sample Inspector, click the Select button.
4. In the Select Effect dialog box, do any of the following:
• Choose an effect from the list box (Cloud, Fire, or Ripple) and, if necessary, select parameters for the effect.
• Click Save to save the effect as a .qfx file for use later.
• Click Load to load a previously saved effect.
5. Click OK. GoLive labels the generic filter sample bar in the Timeline Editor with the name of the effect.
6. To add other generic filters that appear at different times in the movie, use the Create Sample tool  to create new generic filter samples. For information on using the Create Sample tool, see Adding and editing samples.
