OK, this will seem a bit stupid, I'm sure. but here it is anyway; I cannot find the ability to change fonts, colors, or alignments for an overlay. I've read the help file that states, "Selecting the title font and color
This page lets you choose the font and colors for your title or credits. By changing the font and colors, you can change the appearance of the title to enhance your movie. The following options appear on this page."... however, I'm not seeing this option anywhere. When right clicking on the text, most MS programs give the option "FONT". This one does not. Did I miss an instalation file? Am I completely in the dark about something simple and stupid? I can see my title, the overlay works fine, I've tried in both without starting a new project, and in a new project - what I would like to do is to have an overlay in a semi transparent font in the lower right hand side of the screen. Help
 
When you are in the dialog window where you enter the words for your text,
the bottom lines (options) are sometimes hidden by the
storyboard/timeline.... there are 4 lines under the entry fields for your
text:

Done, add to movie (which you probably see)

More options:

Change the title animation

Change the text font and color >>>> this is what you are looking for - it
opens another dialog pane

Hi! I am new at this but I hope I can help- On mine the place where you type in your title scrolls down just a little and there are options for fonts and animation. Try that and see if it's there.
