Can't change the font on titles?

I know the usual way to change the fonts on movie titles is to click the title in the Project window, and then a "Show Fonts" button appears in the upper left of the viewer. I have actually done this before, but now when I click a title, that button does not appear. Why doesn't it appear now?
Does it depend on the type of title I am using? I'm using Lens Flare and the text is appearing over myself when I'm talking to my iSight camera. Does it have to have it's own background, or are there any other parameters that I'm missing here?
Thanks for any help.

Certain titles cannot be altered. These include the fancy titles that use quartz composer routines. The simple titles like lower third will let you change fonts.

  • Can't change the font, color, size, text style, or alignment in iMovie 09..

    Hi there
    Just startet editing an mp4 file. I'm trying to do subtitles, and the only suitable option is the "Lower Third' titling option. According to the Help file "Select the title in the Project Browser, and then click Show Fonts in the viewer. The iMovie Font Panel opens." Well, it doesn't. 'Show Fonts' just disappears....am I missing something?
    Thanks in advance.

    I found out that you have to choose font, style & pt. size BEFORE you start typing your title, which is lame. If you type your title, you can't change the font etc. afterwards—you have to delete the title and start again. Very annoying, and, for Apple, a surprising bug.

  • Where can I change the font settings for the name of the month in iPhoto's calendar project?

    where can I change the font settings for the name of the month in iPhoto's calendar project?  I just ordered two copies of a calendar I designed in iPhoto and was surprised to find that the calendar's months were printing in something like an Arial 10 pt font.  On previous calendars I've printer via iPhoto and Apple, the font was much larger.  I've tried every menu option in iPhoto and the Calendar Project program and can't find where this is modifyable. Which leads me to ask, what the heck happened here in the first place?  I did not consciously change the default.
    I do remember that I got some notice when I first tried to print the calendar about the default font having been changed, but I don't know how this could have happened, and I didn't know what impact that had on the calendar until it was delivered.  I typically print about a dozen annual calendars but won't buy another until I've got a handle on this problem.  For the most part, the rest of the calendar is okay.
    As a P.S. is there anywhere where one can get a power user's manual, or instruction on iPhoto?

    "Maximum" and "12" usually refer to compression (influencing image quality and jpeg file size in bytes); and as Curt wrote, dpi is meaningless for display by and viewing in web browsers.  (It could be a different matter if you are uploading the jpeg files for someone to download from the web to print.)
    What are the sequence of steps that you and your batch processing take from Bridge?
    You can use call Photoshop's Image Processor from Bridge to create the jpeg files  (Tools > Photoshop > Image Processor).  In the Image Processor you can set jpeg compression, pixel dimensions if desired, also convert to sRGB (good idea for web display).  In my experience the image processor leaves unchanged whatever dpi is set in the source file; or, if none there as might be for a pdf, it will set the dpi value in your New Document Preset Print Resolution (from your Photoshop Units & Rulers preferences).

  • How can you change the font size in the application and system headers?

    How can you change the font size in the application and system headers?  I searched the system and finder prefs to no avail.  Changing the screen density is not a good option.
    Thanks

    I downloaded Tinkertool.  Found the font section and increased the size of most selections.  The only thing that changed that I can see is the window label.  The apple line, bookmarks line, the tool bar in safari are all the same---font size of about 4.  Found the finder "show view options" but that didn't seem to change anything either.  I'll keep working.  Restarted all apps after changes as well.

I am not talking about the final product and inserting fonts in my documet i am talking about when i am in the progress of coding I want to change the font so it is way more pleaseing to the eye when I am staring at it while coding? please do help and thanks!

    Editing the source is a bit of a pain because you'll have to redo it after every update.  It's better to write yourself a mini-extension that adds a new stylesheet -- that is also very simple to do.  Just follow these instructions: https://github.com/adobe/brackets/wiki/Customize-Your-Code-Font.

  • How can I change the font in emails sent on my ipad or at least have it retain the font I copy

    How can I change the font in emails sent on my ipad or at least have the email retain the font that I copy & paste into it?

    There is no way that I know of within the native iPad email app. You might want to search the app store for a third party app that lets you change fonts if this is important.

    Use the Fonts menu. Either -
    • go to the Format menu and select Show Fonts
    • or, in the Note creation window, click the icon for Fonts -
    In either case, once the Fonts window is open, select the text you want to change then choose the font characteristics (face, style, and size) from the Fonts screen.

    Use Software Update to update your os to 10.6.8 and anything else that needs to be updated.  After the installations go to /Library/Preferences - trash the com.apple.Preview.plist file.  Repair permissions, restart your computer and empty the trash.  Your Preview issue should now be resolved.

  • Can we change the font in the email that is being sent from SAP ?

    Hi,
    I have a requirement where in we need to change the font for the contents in the mail being generated from SAP.
    I am using the FM SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1 to send my mail.And the contents are just appened to an internal table as text elements.
    Can we change the font in the email that is being sent from SAP  to Arial 10points?

    E-mails generated with that function module are created in plain text format.  The font that would appear when reading the e-mail would be dependt on the user's setting for the e-mail application (e.g. Outlook).
    To my knowledge, the font cannot be affected during it's creation.
    Hope this sheds some light on your issue.
