FAQ

How can I force text to appear on a new line with DH_SubtitleX?

When editing the subtitle text in DH_SubtitleX, pressing Return will remove the text cursor and end editing on that field. To force a new line in the subtitle text it is necessary to press Option-Return.


Is it possible to automate the creation of subtitles with DH_SubtitleX?

This is possible by using the third party application, X-Title Importer from Spherico (version 1.8 or later) which can convert many subtitle formats into a Final Cut Pro X timeline while still getting the benefits of DH_SubtitleX.


Can the DH_ReincarnationX crosshairs be hidden when setting the dead pixel position?

The on-screen crosshair graphics will be shown if DH_ReincarnationX is selected in the Video Inspector. So to hide them, simply deselect DH_ReincarnationX (clicking on the Effects heading is an easy way), and you’ll still be able to set the dead pixel position using the parameter controls.


How do I uninstall a plug-in?

Plug-ins have two components: The FxPlug which does all the work and the Motion Template which provides a bridge between the FxPlug and Final Cut Pro X.

FxPlugs (e.g. DH_BoxX.fxplug folder) are located at
Macintosh HD/Library/Plug-Ins/FxPlug

Motion templates (e.g. DH_BoxX folder) are located at:
Home/Movies/Motion Templates/Effects/Digital Heaven
or
Home/Movies/Motion Templates/Generators/Digital Heaven

Plug-ins can be uninstalled by moving both of their folders to the trash.


Which fonts are available in DH_CounterX and DH_SubtitleX?
