About titles
There are different ways to add titles in Pinnacle Studio:
• Create a title from scratch
• Add a preset title
When you create a title from scratch, you can save it as a preset.
Most of the time, when you choose a preset title, you’ll add it to your project, then make any edits you want by selecting the title in the Timeline, and changing the text or other properties in the Title panel.
Note: If you decide to edit a title directly from the Library, the preset opens in Correction mode. A tab appears in the Timeline to display the title (the current project also has a tab). It is recommended that you finish editing the title, save it (to a new name), and close the title tab in the Timeline before continuing with your main project.
Tips for finding titles
As with other assets, you can search for preset titles in the Library. Here are some keywords you can use:
• overlay: Titles that have transparent areas through which the content of underlying tracks will be visible.
• fullscreen: titles have no transparent areas: they fully occupy the video frame.
Other search keywords to try out with titles in the Library are ‘roll’, ‘crawl’, ‘name’ and ‘title’.
