Stephen Ryan Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 How does one get titles on black ground, not on video imaging? I want to have my titles (title of video, and my details) on a black background, not on the imaging per se. I can't see how to do it.

Nationalsolo Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 HI A couple of ways.... Click the Add Title tab on the toolbar Select your type of title....e.g. Simple Text Overlay In the central control area of the Text Editor above the text entry box select Full Background To the right of this click the colour square and select the background colour (Black) required from the colour palette. (Use the eye dropper to select) .... The background to the editor will now change to the selected colour. Choose a contrasting colour for the text e.g. Yellow in this example and type in the text. Set the other parameters e.g Font/text size/position/scrolling etc. Close the editor and the title on a black background will appear on the overlay track at the cursor position. You can adjust the position of the underlying clip if required. Another way is to add a black blank clip to the timeline for the background and use any contrasting colour to the text as the Editor Background . This time the text will have a transparent background and you adjust it to be above the blank clip........ Hope this helps. If you want further advice or you have some difficulty please come back to the forum. Nat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
