Text and Captions not working

The status of this bug report has been updated.

I just downloaded the 2024 Version on my other PC aswell. It's not working on there either. So I have replicated this error now... 😕😕

@Stan Jones I just tried it now, still no difference. But it shouldn't be connected to the workspace, since its loading everything up... the graphics.

Testing in 2024, brand new project

@intelligent_Walrus0D4C,

I did a quick test in 24.5.0, and captions creation and editing seem normal in a 9X16 sequence in the Vertical workspace.

I'd do as Mike suggests, and I'll add just a bit. First, reset the Vertical workspace (Window -> Workspace -> Reset to saved layout).

If that doesn't help, create a new project in 24.5.0.

Import a single clip.

Right-click on it in the Project panel and "Transcribe."

Drag it to the new icon. Just for our information, is it 16x9 or 9x16? It shouldn't matter.

In the Text panel, transcript tab, click on the CC (create captions), and just click ok.

Are the captions visible in the Program monitor?

By doesn't work, do you not even get a graphic track item with a text layer in it? Or do you get a text layer but you can't see it in the program monitor?

I downgraded the Project to 2023 and it works there... so it's a 2024 issue.

yeah that also doesn't work, also the rectangle tool etc. not working... I think it's somehow related to the internal graphics engine or something? But when I drop in PNGs I can move them around, keyframe etc.
