Create a title with animated text
You can easily apply a preset animation to any still title. Text animation presets quickly and easily animate the characters in your title so that they
fade or pop characters into view, or fly in from the top or bottom of the screen. For example, using the Fade In By Characters preset instantly
makes each separate character in your title fade into view until the title is complete.To preview an animation, position the pointer on the Animation
tab in the Adjust panel.

In the Expert view timeline, double-click the title clip.
The Adjust panel changes to display the text options.
2. In the Adjust panel, select an animation preset under the Animation tab.
3. Do one of the following to apply the preset to the title:
Click Apply.
Drag the preset to the Monitor window and drop it on top of the title text.
To remove an animation from a title, select the title text and click the Remove button at the bottom of the Animation tab in the Adjust panel.
Create a rolling or crawling title
Although static titles, graphics, and images may suffice for some projects, others require titles that move. Using roll and crawl options, you can
instantly create professional-looking moving titles. The length of the title in the Quick view timeline determines the speed of the movement. The
more you increase the title clip length, the slower the movement.
Rolling titles move characters vertically across the screen.
Crawling titles move characters horizontally across the screen.
Keyframes let you move characters across a custom path that you create by setting different position keyframes at several points in time.
You cannot add a roll or crawl, or apply keyframes to a title that uses an animation preset. Applying an animation preset will overwrite all
roll, crawl, and keyframe settings.
