Anyone know how to do this? I need to have my blur-masked fields STAY blurred when the Pan/Zoom is in motion. Right now the callout stays anchored to the location I placed it... I need it to move relative to the zoom!
I have a project due ASAP, and this whole thing is toast if I can't figure out how to move the callout with the pan/zoom!
Camtasia 8: Synchronizing/Anchoring Callouts to Pan/Zoom Motion
-
Hi Eric - I think for this scenario, the new "group" feature in Camtasia Studio 8 is just what you need. You can select the video clip and the blur callout on the timeline, group them, then apply the zoom and pan effects. That should pin or anchor the callout to the underlying media.
I made a quick video to show the steps:

Thanks for your question Eric. I have good news, you can anchor a callout to an area of the screen. To do this, add your callout to where you want it before adding your zoom and pan keyframes. Then select the callout and the media you want to anchor it to, then right click and choose group from the context menu. This will combine the callout and the media into a single clip on the timeline. Now you can add your zoom and pan keyframes to the group, and the callout will stay locked to the portion of the screen where you placed it.
I hope this helps!

Dan/Shane - Thank you! That's just what the doctor ordered!
If I may suggest - adding a "help" topic in the Overview guide that says something like "Anchoring Callouts to Pan/Zoom Motion" would be helpful for Cam 8 newbs like myself. -
