The Text Property Panel allows you to adjust the text mark-up annotations.
Properties
UI Path: ||Property Panel|| > Text panel
This rollout becomes active when you have selected a Text Layer (
).
Text – Holds the actual text that is displayed by the Text Layer. You can change it by double clicking on the Text field or by holding Shift and double clicking on the Text Layer in the Preview Area.
Alignment – Controls for the horizontal and vertical alignment of the text.
Font – Specifies the text font, size, and color. The following controls allow you to add effects like Outline and Shadow to the text. The last settings allow you to put a background color for the text and set a transparency for that background.
Embedded Fields
The text in text layers may contain embedded fields of the form {object:property}. Such fields are replaced with their values before the text is displayed.
For example, {timeline:frame} is replaced with the current frame, and {4:timecode} is replaced with the embedded timecode of layer 4.
This is useful for burn-ins when creating previews and dailies.
