Before you can edit a title, you must select it in the Monitor panel.
1. Do one of the following:
In the Quick view timeline, select the title clip or the clip on which the title is superimposed. In the Monitor panel, click the clip to select it,
and then double-click the text to edit.
In the Expert view timeline, you may need to use the scroll bars along the right side to see a title on the Video track to which the title has
been applied.
The title-editing tools appear and the tool changes to the Type tool. The Project Assets panel changes to display text options, where you
can specify options for the text in your title.
2. Do one of the following in the Monitor panel:
To move the insertion point, click between characters or use the Left Arrow and Right Arrow keys.
To select a single character or group of contiguous characters, drag from the blinking insertion-point cursor to highlight the characters.
To format an entire text or graphic object, click the object to select it, and then modify its attributes.
