Creating and Formatting Text In Titles
Here are the basic types of text you can have in your titles.
- Point Text: Single click with the text tool "T" to create point text. It will be static and continue on a single line unless you enable "Word Wrap" in the title menu.
- Paragraph Text: Click and drag to create a paragraph box. It will be static and automatically wrap at the edge of the box.
- Path Text: If you use the Path Text tool you can draw a curved path for the text to follow.
- Rolling Text: This text moves vertically, usually from top to bottom and is often used for the credits of a movie.
- Crawling Text: This text moves horizontally, usually from left to right.
- Use the "Roll/Crawl Options" from the Title menu or the button in the title window to control text movement.
