Titles Screen

Registered by Jonathan Thomas

This screen would allow users to choose a template for a title (ideally thumbnails of SVG titles), and let them replace the text in the title:

For example:
In a fancy, styled SVG title image, it might have a few place holders (i.e. [Title Here].... [Sub-Title Here]). The user would type their title, and Confirm. This would create a "Title Clip" in the Files tree. However, really... this is just an SVG image we added to their project. The user should be able to make changes to the Title Text... and change the Title template SVG. Then the user could drop it onto the timeline, and resize it to any length.

UPDATE: Upon further testing of this feature, the title editor should be smart enough to prompt for the correct # of textbox, based on how many TEXT and TSPAN elements it finds in the SVG. Same with the Font Color and Font Face, it should apply to all TEXT and TSPAN elements, not just the first 2 (i.e. title, sub-title). So really, the concept of Title/Sub-Title should be gone, and it should be more dynamic. These changes are already committed to the main trunk.

Sprints

Whiteboard

Also, all default text positions in the templates should be within the titlesafe area. At least the Header and Footer titles are placed along the very edge of the image area, and that is not of any use for viewing on a tv.
