Editing Preferences
• Default workspace: Select to open the Timeline or
Storyboard workspace in PowerDirector by default.
• Link objects across tracks when moving/deleting content in
Video track: links title, effect, music, and PiP clips to clips in
the Video track. Checking this option moves these other clips
when a clip in the Video track moves. Uncheck this option to
treat Timeline tracks separately and does not bind other
tracks to the Video track.
• Add transition between photos when applying Magic
Motion: Adds a transition effect between adjacent photos
when you use the Magic Motion tool.
• Durations: Set default durations (in seconds) for image files
and the different effects in the timeline.
Confirmation Preferences
• Always prompt me when TV format conflicts: Check this
option to enable a warning message when you add a video
clip to the workspace whose TV format (NTSC/PAL)
conflicts with that of the video clips already located in the
workspace.
• Enable file deletion from hard drive and ask me for
confirmation: Check this option if you would like to be able
to delete files located on your hard drive using a menu option
in the Library.
• Enable warning when chapters are removed during editing:
Displays a warning message that chapter points have been
deleted during video editing.
• Always prompt me when widescreen is not supported:

you when widescreen format is not supported.
