Default font color

I have a video that I put multiple "titles" into.  I can make a default font and font size, but I can't seem to figure out how to set the color with it.

Thank you for the reply.  However, that would mean having to change the color in each Title slide I insert.  If I make a default title slide and then drag a title slide onto the track, it will insert the correct font type and size, but it will change the color to white - even if the default shows red.

What I have found is to do the following:

Create a title template with the font type, size and color as you want.  In the Styles tab, make it the default style.  Now, when you want to insert a title slide, have the time marker where you want to insert it, then go up to Text->New Text->Default text.  That will insert a title slide in the cursor location with all the default style.  The text slide is inserted in the next open video chanel - that is if have a clip in Video 1 where the current-time indicator is, the text slide will be placed in video 2.

Thanks again for the help!

Select your text and click on the little paint palette button on the Title Adjustments panel.
