Text at markers
Is there any way to set up a template so that several marked clips will use the same font and color without having to reset at each text?

I’m assuming you are talking about Text events in the Media Generators tab. If so, setup your first text event with the color, spacing, kerning, etc. like you would like it to be in the succeeding text events. You can leave the default wording “Sample Text” for now. Next, copy the event and change the text of the copied events. You can do this as many times as required (or for as many text events as you need).
Another way to accomplish this is to create multiple “blank” text events. Go back to the first text event (actually it could be any of the events, but makes sense to do the first one) and change the text to your liking (i.e. color, spacing, kerning, etc.) then right-click on THAT text event and select COPY. Select the remaining text events, right-click and select the Paste Event Attributes option. This will paste the copied text attributes (you copied from the first text event) into the selected text events.
Another way to select the remaining events (if they are all on the same track) is to right-click on the first text event you want to copy the text attributes to and select the Select Events to End option. Then right-click one of those selected and select the Paste Event Attributes option again.

I just Make text events, hold ctrl and copy the event over to where I want it to play, choose the option to creat copies of the source media, then I just change the text in that event, and continue on that way.
