Can I change all fonts in iMovie at once?

I have been asked to change the font to match my organisation's branding. Rather than going into each individual slide and clicking on the "Show Font" button, I am wondering if I can do them all at once.
Thanks.

I don't think you can do that. The only thing I think you can change are transitions and title styles all at once, according to Jeff Carlson. But the individual type faces aren't covered by this. The styles applied are the Centered, Lower Third, placement styles and animation styles of the titles. Those you can change en masse by picking a different one and dragging it onto one of your existing titles. That will throw up a contextual dialog box that looks like this:
And you have many options for how to replace the style, unfortunately this doesn't extend down to the typeface, font, color, etc.

Is there a way to change the font in iMovie

I had a particular style I created for intro to a movie and I was trying to recreate it with the new update but can't seem to find the option. And what I do find isn't highlighted to be accessible. Am I missing/ overlooking something?

I am having the same problem as well.
The drop-down font menu is greyed out. While I havent tried each and every available title style, I have tried most....no change with any of them.

IMovie-Why can't I change the font of my title?

My simple question is that when I open the Font window from the menu to try to change the type, size and color of my font it doesn't change anything.
Below is the step by step of what I'm doing if you need this information:
I choose "T" button below view screen.
Select "Organic Main" and drag and drop it infront of my video (Green line indicates where to put it, and a green plus confirms the move is good).
Screen pops up asking me to choose background, I choose "Organic".
View screen shows new background with Text "Title Text Here" highlighted.
Project screen shows the new block in the front of my video clips, on top of this box is the blue rectangle box that is highlighted yellow and repeats the "Title Text Here" text.
So far so good.
I go to the top menu and choose "Text > Show Fonts". The Font window pops up.
Now when I click on fonts, font sizes, or try to change the color of the font, nothing happens.
I close the font window and hit done on my preview window and still nothing happens.
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you so much in advance, you people are always so helpful

Hi Appleman,
So what causes the Title Sequence from not being able to be edited?
As per michelepost comments earlier, neither the "Show Fonts" function allows title values to be changed, nor if the iMove Font Panel displayed?
From the Menu options, neither does the Cmd- or Cmd+ functions work to manage the size of the title text...
Can new titles be created with images from my photo library be used as backgrounds for Titles?
Whilst on the theme, why when changing photo image durations, the value in time entered does not relate to the image(s) selected? I enter 1.8seconds, and 0.9 is displayed against the selected image.......
Looking forward to your response in advance.

Change font in iMovie 10.0.7??

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.

How to change font in imovie title

I have put some titles in my iMovie and cannot change the font. I click on the Title and the font fetures are not active, so it remains the default font.

Hey All,
I was struggling with changing fonts too -- then I used "Upper" which can be changed and Simply copy and paste it into any other style of title.
IT WORKS! (what a hack)
-Hope it works for you too

Rs to do, and I selected the font for each 4s clip - now I want to change the font - is there a way to change all fonts on clips in one go?

Hi I am new to iMovie - and made a 35min film - quite pleased with it - I sub-titled it right through coz we work with deaf people - wanted my first movie to be accessible. Now I want to change the font on each clip - can I do this in one step - and change all the sub-titles to a different font - thanks a lot, Jane

Maybe some one else can pipe up with a solution, but this would literally take 2 seconds to do for a new project. And you can create a "template project" that includes this "text" clip. Save this project and then to a get info and check "stationary pad." When you double click on this file, fcp will open with a copy of this project and you just need to do a save as.
I've been working with computer editing systems for longer than i can remember and at a certain point you just have to adapt your workflow to the limitations of the software.

I am not able to change any fonts when i add in titles

I just loaded the 10.0.1 to my MACBOOK PRO and started trying to edit a move. I pulled a standard title over a photo, but when i tried to change fonts and sizes, no luck. there is also a red diagional on thw color box and I don't get any alignment options showing. It almost seems that that function is disabled. I have tried various title with no luck. Is there someting I need to turn on to get that to work? I was having no problem changing title fonts and sizes wih the prevous version of imovie.

This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

Changing a font in a theme

Does anyone know how to change a font in a theme in iMovie HD?
12 Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.7) 1.5gb ram 80gb disk

Scott,
You might experiment with creating themes without titles and then place your own titles over them.
Also, send feedback to apple to let them know of your frustration.

Why can't I change the font size on the menu bars for my mac book air?

The text is just too small sometimes. Are there any third party apps that can help with this, apparently apple is under the impression everyone has perfect vision? Is this some crazy request? I was reading through the forums and this has been a problem for a while now. I am so happy that apple has high resolution screens but my eyes are not great and it is hard for me to focus on small things for very long.

I would like to change the font size (make it larger) in the Finder SIDEBAR

I would like to change the font size (make it larger) in the Finder SIDEBAR in Leopard.

Welcome to Apple Discussions.

Well, if you normally use the lowest resolution, then yes.

Also it CAN be done in iMovie 08, why isn't it possible with other Apple apps?
I can't answer that question. We don't work for Apple here, we're all just plain users who contribute our time, but you can send Mac OS X Feedback

How can I change the font when creating an e-mail in Outlook's web-mail mode?

I am new to Firefox. When I go to a web-mail server, I can click on sending a new message. While there, I cannot find any way to change the font, font size, or color of the text. All of these options were available in a toolbar at the top of the message window when I am using Internet Explorer 9 or IE8. I have looked through all of the help files provided by Firefox, and found nothing about changing fonts, etc.
Thanks for trying to help

Hi Jaime,
Are you saying, you are getting junk characters in the email attachment? Then pls check the following. Since you want to send Japanese fonts, please pass language 'J' in both objpack-obj_langu = '3' & doc_chng-obj_langu = '3' instead of '3' please replace it with 'J'.
Another thing which you may have to check is the SCOT device type. As I understand from my basis colleague, this may also affect your attachment fonts since the emails are sent through SCOT. Go to transaction SCOT-> Settings-> Device types for format conversion. Check whether wrong device type is defined for Japanese there. Hope this helps

Change the font color of a text field in a table by key-combination

I want to change the font color of a text field in a table (single cell only) on pressing a key combination. Does anybody know how to do this.
I have a lot of data in a table. During an evaluation of the data in a meeting I want to change the color of the text depending on the result of the meeting. (for example: High risk = CTRL+R makes the text red).
I know how to change the color using a button, but I do not want to add a button after each cell. For this reason I would like to do it on a key combination that alway refers to the active cell.
Many thanks for your help in advance.
Marcel

Hi,
I don't think you can use the ctrl key like that as those shortcuts will be intercepted by Reader (ctrl-R toggles the ruler display on / off). You also might have trouble updating the color while you still have focus on it. You can use the shift key in a similar way, so if you only have lower case characters in the text fields then you can do something like;
if (xfa.event.shift)
    switch (xfa.event.change)
        case "R":
            this.fontColor = "255,0,0";
            break;
        case "O":
            this.fontColor = "255,102,0";
            break;
        case "G":
            this.fontColor = "0,255,0";
            break;
    xfa.event.change = ""; // ignore character
If you need uppercase characters maybe you can have one button to set "review mode" and test that on the if (xfa.event.shift) line. But again it wont take effect until you have tabbed out of the field.

How does one change the font size for folders and/or file lists in the Bookmarks Library?

How does one change the font size for folders and/or file lists in the '''Bookmarks''' Library?
Since the upgrade to version 9.0.1 of Firefox, the Bookmarks feature changes are confusing me. They seem to be confusing themselves as well. The list of bookmarks has changed. The font size is so small that my aging eyes cannot read it without fogging the screen with my breath. Some folders are out of alphabetical order (where I know they were previously good), and some are missing altogether (folders to which I frequently add references).
As for missing or deranged files or folders, was there something that I should have done or now need to do to recover those after the upgrade (or before)?
With regard to font size,
1. there is no “Edit Bookmarks” or like option to edit the list in this version
2. the “zoom” option in the “view” list of functions is greyed out when in “Show All Bookmarks” window
3. expanding the browser window has no effect on font size
4. “Preferences” settings for font size has no effect in that window either, including advanced settings
5. “Help” offers none that I can find.
Can any of you Help?!?

Maybe this extension helps:
