Nationalsolo Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 HI Although you can paste text into the subtitle editor it seems you can't do this when entering text into the "Add text" screen. Could this feature be added..it could be useful. I am pleased to see that my suggestion re: the font names being listed in the actual font has been implemented.

borate Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 HI Although you can paste text into the subtitle editor it seems you can't do this when entering text into the "Add text" screen. You can do this, Nat. But if the ADD TEXT box background color is the same as the font color it won't be seen. Change it to white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nationalsolo Posted April 23, 2016 Author Share Posted April 23, 2016 Hi Borate I actually had the font default set as Balloon in red with a background black, so there is no clash of this type. Typing text was fine; the letters appearing at the cursor line in Balloon red. I was actually looking at the Hebrew text problem where the text in subtitles mode appeared out of order. and was wondering if it could be pasted in the "Add text " window instead, where I had the idea that it wouldn't be rearranged. So I used Google translator to create the Hebrew text and copied it using the right click "Copy.paste" However, pasting this into VP"Add Text" window didn't work as there is no Paste option...at least I cant find it.. ...but......I have just had a thought.....is it because I was pasting Hebrew text?....I'll try ordinary western text... No...That doesn't work either .Right clicking on the text window doesn't give a "Cut Copy Paste" menu. It just brings up the larger Text entry window and right clicking this has no action either. And yes; I can Copy/Paste Hebrew text into the Windows notepad, so why not VP? This is with version 4.40 professional. Nat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borate Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Did you try <ctrl-V> or <shift-insert> ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c_major Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Pasting works with hot keys (Ctrl-V) but we didn't have a button/menu for it. We'll find the right place to add one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nationalsolo Posted April 26, 2016 Author Share Posted April 26, 2016 Hi Yes...Adding text by Ctrl-V pastes OK. Don't often use the Hot keys . Thanks. A right click menu in the Add text window would be a logical place to put up any options available. Nat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
