Editing a Movie

In DRAGRI Lite, you can edit a movie according to the following three steps.

  1. Set the starting point.
  2. Set the end point.
  3. Draw a drag path.

Set the starting point

Moving the slider (1) under the video, select the frame you wish to make starting point.

In this example, you set the starting point at the beginning of nodding. Then press [Start Point] button (2).

The left-hand semicircular marker, indicating the starting point, is displayed at the upper-left of frame.

Set the end point

In a similar manner, move the slider (3) and specify the end point pressing the button (4).

The right-hand semicircular mark will be displayed at the upper-right of the frame.

Draw a drag path

Next, draw a drag path (5) along the line of movement for the object in the video.

Test

After drawing a drag path, drag a mouse near the path, that the video will be moved along with your operation.

Add more drag paths

If there is more than one movement in the video, you can add drag paths in the same manner.

Editing the drag path

When there is a gap between mouse operation and the movement of object in the video, you can modify the drag path moving small blue rectangles on the path.

Adding a point

To add a point to a drag path, click on the line indicating the drag path at the point where you wish to add the new point.

Moving a point

A point on a drag path can be moved by dragging it.

Deleting a point

To delete a point on a drag path, drag the point you wish to delete to another point.

Reverse the direction of the drag path

When you draw a drag path in reverse direction, you can flip it by pressing button.

Changing focus between drag paths

If there is more than one drag path on the movie, the viewer cannot normally move from one drag path to another while mouse button remains pressed. However, it is possible to allow this move using the following method.

While pressing the CTRL key on the keyboard, click the drag path from where you wish to allow a focus switch to another drag path. The line then turns black.

The red line indicates it has the input focus.

The black line indicates it doesn't have the input focus and the viewer can move another drag path pressing the mouse button.

Setting Movie Size

Pressing [Reduce] button, shrink the movie size. To enlarge the image, press [Enlarge] button. To set back normal size, press [Original] button.
