Position tags in Masaf Background Automation in Aegisub

[tamarinera]

Hi there. Thanks a million for helping out!

I'm using Aegisub and trying to add a background box using Masaf Automation. It worked fine a few days ago with different files.

Now, two problems are happening:

1. Masaf is not adding the position tag to every line, so that the subtitles are not getting positioned over the box.

2. Even if I choose to add the position tag {\p1\pos(640,648)} myself, it makes the subtitles totally disappear. I've checked margins in the style, etc.

Any ideas why this is happening?

Okay, I figured out the answer to #2. The code I was inserting was incorrect, so that was easy. Inserting the correct positioning code {\pos(600,648)} on all the lines by selecting them and using the Masaf automation function Add Code To Selected Lines did indeed position the lines properly.

However, when I ran the Automation to Add Background, it removed all the previous position code I'd inserted, and did not add the code as it usually does.

So I still don't have the answer to my #1: Why isn't Masaf automation inserting the position tags?
