Oh, sorry--the first post said something about black video as one of the options.
Anyway, to get a frame and hold it, you pick out which frame you want and put the CTI (Current Time Indicator) over it. Then go to FILE > EXPORT> FRAME. You can name the file, and choose where you will save it. Also, in that dialogue box, you can go to settings, and choose video, then pick your aspect ratio, etc., and whether you want to save it as a BMP, GIF, Targa, or TIFF. If you have checked "add to project", it will be in your project window when you're through. Then drag it to the timeline where you want it. You'll probably have to resize it to match the video. Hope this is what you're looking for.

IIRC, if you take a still image and drop it onto the timeline, by default it's held for 5 seconds. (The time can be changed.) So what he needs to know, with instructions specific to the AP version he's using, is how to take a frame of video, save it as a still image, then add it to the timeline. __________________________________________________________ Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo!
