  • Text being cut off

    Posted by Nelson Nguyen on February 22, 2017 at 9:22 pm

    I’m creating a video and I want to dictate some of what is said in it. I want to animate it so the words appear as they are said, when my text becomes too long it gets cut off. I think it’s a problem with the safe area for text and I want to keep the text size, but I’m not sure how to fix it.

    You can see I have more than what is shown here: https://imgur.com/a/PJC9C

    I can just make out a KF on the Track Timeline of that Text Event. Is that interfering?

    The first thing I looked at was to see if you have a Pan/Crop Control. You appear not.

    Dunno…. Need more info.

    I’m not sure I follow on the first point.

    As for the Pan/Crop, I have done nothing to crop or pan the text event.

    There’s a Track Motion KeyFrame Diamond under the Cursor.

    Yes there is because I wanted the text to be placed in the top centre of the screen. Could it be that I have to modify my text size to fit it on the screen, instead of creating it at a large size and moving it?
