Editing titles after saving in VS9

Post by Chaz »

Hey everyone,

I'm having a slight problem with titles in VS9. Once I create them and add them to the timeline or send them to the timeline, I can no longer edit any of their options like animations and size. So if I want to tweak the title slightly, I have to create a completely new one, and allign it correctly again and everything, which is truly a pain.

Has anyone else experienced such problems, and if so, perhaps know a way to fix it so that I can still edit my titles after I've added them to the timeline?

Greetings, Charlie

Hi Chaz,

Usually with VS9, when in timeline edit mode, you just double click the title bar in the timeline. The title will come up on the preview screen boxed for moving, justifying etc, and the Edit/Animation panel is available to the left enabling adjustment to font size, type, colour etc

Cheers
George

Is the title you are using a Preset?

Also, please enable multiple titles options in the Edit tab of Title section.

Thanks for your help guys. It's actually really stupid, but I figured it out the second after I posted this thread ;). The thing is that I was using text with a fade-in, so at the start of the clip, there was no title visible in the preview, so I didn't immediately think of clicking in the preview window to select the title. Doh!
