Move Captions to the bottom of the screen

Safe margins are a relic for many applications. PLEASE change this nanny setting!

please remove this safe margin no one likes it!

Is this fixed already? What a weird and random limitation....

Yes, please remove the restriction. I often have videos that are for web only so I'm not concerned about title-safe area and the captions are laying over some text on screen so I need to move them lower. This would also be a problem for anyone burning in captions over things like PowerPoint presentations, etc. that have text/ charts/etc. that shouldn't be obscured by captions.

Yes, remove restriction.

I don't recall if I commented before; I up-voted a long time ago. a) I'd be happy with an override option. b) Other workflows, including easy conversion of caption text to graphics text (and vice versa) would also help. I believe these are being worked on.

Note that the ACTUAL limitation here is only 5%, not 10%. This was a big improvement over the pre-2021 workflow which was 10% The caption bounding box can be moved down to 1026 out of 1080 pixels. And this does not limit descenders (which vary by font and size).

YES! Remove this restriction. In the days of YouTube, smartphones and millions of other ways to watch content on NON-overscan screens, forcing a safe margin on us is completely idiotic! Please make it an on/off setting in the Preferences window.

Ya this needs to be fixed. Let me put Captions where I want to.

The 10% restrictions for safe margins is not justifiable since tube monitors are gone IMHO. An option to defeat this restriction would be great.

The workaround to put the same timeline with everything invisible but the subtitle track into a timeline duplicate just to repostition the subs does not restrict me, but slows down my work.

We're currently working in a special super tall format for projection with a 1:3 aspect, and need to put captions along the top edge of the frame. The 10% margin makes this simple thing impossible. Please remove this unnecessary restriction.
