Sub-titles

I have a lot of subtitles to change height and... centering with QT

Is there a way to go fast in palce or opening it one by one.

Thanks

Hi:
I think so. If all (or at least many of) your subtitles in QT resides on the same place (e.g. centered vertivally and horicontally) you may try the following:

1. Don't (never) use T-Tracks but place all your subtitles in a V-Track (VA-Track not necessary).
2. Take the first of the subtitles > Layouter > move the title to the place where you want it to be > change the dimension of the text (hight ...) and other options.
3. Save the layouter as a preset.
4. Select all other (or at least many) subtitles > drag the layouter-preset onto one of the selected subtitles.

Maybe this could help you.

If you have to modify each (or at least many of) the subtitles via QuickTitler:

For each subtitle:
1. Open QT > Check the View > Title Object Layout Bar
2. Open subtitel with the QT.
3. Don't change size and position of the subtitle BUT click in bottom-right at center mark (see screenshot, red arrow).
4. save the subtitle (click the disk-icon).
5. Repeat steps 2. to 4. for the other subtitles.

At end: apply the algorithm of my post-#2

42-50 is a very common size dir DCPs.
So you won't be wrong respecting These Parameters.

Why use QT when you can use a subtitling program to do so. There are many free ones on the market. Vistitle also has a subtitling module that works well once you get used to it.

In this case, its because I share the editing with my client who don't have Vistitle.... But your remark is relevant... and it's beter to use more powerfull programs.

Thanks
