AquaSoft Vision and Stages contain a large repertoire of tools that you can use to edit your project. In the following graphic you will find an overview of the most important controls. We will often talk about objects here. Objects are all elements that can be inserted into a project, e.g. images, texts, music, videos, Flexi-Collages and more.

Properties of an image object

Each object has certain Properties that are displayed when you click on the Object in the Image list, Timeline or Storyboard. In the example here, the Properties of an Image object are displayed.

Here you can determine, for example, the display duration (under Duration) of your image and the type of Fade-in and Fade-out.
