70 VIDEOSTUDIO USER GUIDE
When entering a text title, a faint rectangle is visible in the Preview Window. This is the Title
safe area, and it is the recommended maximum size for your text. Along with the rectangle,
you should see a blinking cursor that indicates the starting point for text entry.
When entering text, you can press [Backspace] to correct mistakes and press [Enter] to start
a new line. Move around the text with the arrow keys as needed. To change the attributes of
text, first highlight the text by selecting it with your mouse and then make revisions.
