Question

Text in text box disappears in a certain range of screen

This problem is driving me crazy.  I can't seem to put a text box to occupy the entire video window.  There's an imaginary boundary in the video and as I type text that hits this border, it doesn't show the text.  I've included screenshots to show the problem.  What am I doing wrong???

To understand what's happening, the text says "15440 Beach Blvd."  As soon as I hit that boundary underneath the "M" in compounding, the text disappears.  If I drag the text box to the left, you can see the text.  If I drag the box rightward, the text will disappear as it hits the boundary.

Having the same issue. Cannot figure what is blocking my text.

Make sure vector motion and motion are set to default

Instead of using a bounding box just start typing your text.

Hi @reid_3125,

This is a bit of an old post. Can you give us more information and screenshots about your system and version of Premiere Pro? I hope we can help you.

 

Thanks,
Kevin

I'm adding this to help provide clues.  So the highlighted text box says "15440 Beach Blvd".  The "Blvd" is obscured at the boundary.  I added another text box that only says "Blvd".  You can see that it's visible.

Hi, most likely the position of the clip in which the text is placed has been moved to the left, try changing the x position under the Video - Motion effect (see picture)
