Position captions anywhere

> It is not possible to position captions anywhere.

True, but to be more precise, you can position them "everywhere except" the extreme positions. In the current caption workflow, this was improved from within 10 percent of the edge to 5 percent. But agreed; you cannot get them to the edge.

I assume you've see the workaround with nesting, "To Adjust Caption Track Position" here:

I think the better workaround is to convert the captions to regular graphics text, which can be manipulated with Effect Controls. Here's a post discussing:

See this uservoice request that is similar:

Another idea, I don't know if there is already such a request or not, is to provide for conversion of a caption track into a regular track with graphics text (and therefore subjec to effect controls panel).

Hi mike1999,

Are you trying to move the captions segment on the same caption track, or are you trying to move it to a different track?

Let us know, we're here to help.

Thanks,
