TItles

I find that when I try to do things on Adobe, things are often not intuitive. I'm even willing to admit perhaps there's something wrong with my intuition, but--in case others feel the same way--is Adobe Premiere Pro more intuitive? I would gladly pay for not having to run into a bottle neck every time I do something.

My latest difficulty is in getting some text into my video at the beginning of my song. First I have the audio and video on the timeline. Then, on the bottom toolbar--if that's what you call it--I choose titles and text. I choose one with the titles box on the bottom. One would think that would mean that the rest of the field would be the video I have already added to the timeline. When I click on this titles item, a message says to drag it either to the timeline or to the monitor. When I drag it to the monitor, nothing happens. When I drag it to the timeline, nothing happens. WHen I drag it to "video 2," it does settle there. However, when I then play the project, I only see the title, without the video in the background. I must add that after I  enter the text in my title, it's difficult to get rid of this title box--that is, the box that appears on the right of my monitor.

So again, I'm just throwing away time trying to figure something out. I just don't think it should be that difficult. Perhaps I'm just being difficult--or dense.

Thanks.
