Do you mean that what's shown is not the full image? Or do you mean that the export lacks part of the project? To suss this out we need to take a look...

Share your project. Someone will check it out and come up with a fix. The process is easy, quick and can be done privately. Just follow these steps...

Back up --- With your project on the timeline, click on MENU at the top-left. Click FILE|BACK UP PROJECT FILES TO FOLDER. Choose a folder and SELECT FOLDER.
Upload --- Use a free server - Google Drive, MS OneDrive, etc.* - to upload the saved, numbered FOLDER. Do NOT upload the individual VPJ or export file.
Get link --- Get a public link. If using Google Drive click GET SHAREABLE LINK. If necessary change "restricted" to "anyone with the link can view"
Share --- Click COPY LINK | DONE. Paste that link here, or click the folder at the top-right of this forum to message it privately to me. It won't be shared.

* Before uploading, right-click the folder, click PROPERTIES. Look at the File Size to confirm that it's not too big for the free space on the server.

Thank you for the reply and I am so sorry once again. For some reason when I exported the first time it went straight throut to a MP4 and without adjustment. Now, it has rectified the situation and is turning out beautiful films, once the adjustments showed themsilves. Therefore, I do not know what happened the first time but it is clear the adjustments are there, although did not show up the first time. THANK YOU ALL AND SORRY FOR THIS PIECE!

BEST WISHES JIM

Good to hear. If it happens again, go to OPTIONS | DISK tab and Clear Unused Cache Files. Then reboot.
