10. Known Issues (Composition Builder v.2025)

(1) “Just Out Engine Output” Component

Due to the new pipeline introduced in the 2025.1 version of the Just Out application, the “Just Out Engine Output” component to scale and reposition the currently playing video/live event works different. Instead of respecting the layer within the composition, the video/live event will always be played as the background element and therefore all other elements of the composition will be played out in front of the video/live event. In addition, even the Attributes to Rotate and to change the Opacity are available in composition:builder v2025, those two Attributes will be ignored while playing out. Instead the unrotated full opaque video/live event will be shown on screen.

(2) "Rich Text (from File)" Component

Resizing the component in the Workbench results in a stretched rendering of its content. To avoid this, use a shorter “Refresh Period” and press the “Play” button in the toolbar. The Workbench should render the content properly as soon as the refresh interval has been hit. Please note that the final output is always rendered properly, though.

(3) “Typewriter Text” Component

The initial size of the component is “32×32” Pixels. This has to be adjusted manually to a proper size.

(4) “Rolling Text” Component

It may be the case that the text is cropped in the lower area. Resize the drawing area to avoid cropped text.

(5) “Skewed Rectangle” Component

A Skew Angle higher than “45°” is not possible.

(6) “Image with Mask” Component

This component may be rendered differently in the Workbench and Preview. Make sure that the mask and the image have the same dimensions.

(7) “Digital Time (with separators)” Component

When resizing the component, the position and spacing of the separator have to be modified to match the new size.

(8) “CI Dummy” Component

This component is visible in the Workbench, but not in the final output or the Preview.

(9) “Image Sequence from Folder” Component

There is a typo in the displayed error message when using images with a resolution that is larger than “0.3” megapixels. The error message reads “3 megapixels”, it should instead be “0.3 megapixels”.

(10) TOA Quartz Composer Plug-Ins

Using old TOA Quartz Composer Plug-Ins may results in unexpected behaviour of several components. If you require TOA Quartz Composer Plug-Ins on your system, please contact ToolsOnAir for further instructions.
