Formatting text
You can format your text by changing the font, text alignment, and text
direction. For example, the text direction can be set for left-to-right,
right-to-left or vertical. You can also add borders and shadows, or
rotate the text. Add a text backdrop to superimpose your text on a solid
or gradient shape to make it stand out. You can also define how long
a title clip appears by adjusting the title clip duration.
Text direction is one of many formatting settings for titles.
To edit titles
1 In the Timeline, select the title clip on the Title Track and click the
Preview Window to enable title editing.
2 Modify the properties of the title clip by using the different
options in the
Edit and Attribute tabs of the Options Panel.
If you plan to change the text direction, it’s best to set this before
you start to type.
