Description Alexandre Bento Freire 2017-01-24 00:32:49 UTC

Clicking Fade In/Out on Text Clip does add this effect.
Only Fade to/from Black works. 


Text clip is an important feature of kdenlive, but it's only usable if I can fade in/out.

Not a bug. Fade from/to black does exactly this. Use a transition, such as composite and tranform, with keyframes and ramp up/down opacity. Please read the manual first. Or ask on G+. Or in forum. Thank you for your cooperation.

But selecting Text clip, if I click on Fade to/from Black there is an effect added to the Effect List,
but if I click on Fade In/Out nothing happens, should at least be grey out for Text Clip to instruct the user there is no action associated with it?

Alexandre, go to G+ or forum in order to ask for help. This is a bug tracker, not a help forum. Do not spam the bug tracker, making our work unnecessarily complicated. Thank you for your cooperation. This report is closed.
