Question

A bug in importing Hebrew srt to Caption

When I import srt file to the new caption tool  - the writing turned up to be left to right instead of right to left, even when my setting is set to middle east and right to left. It Happens also in the new formal premiere version (15.00)

When I started to use the beta version few months ago I noticed that I could fix that problem by changing the right left sympbol in the edit menu but in the past beta versions  that symbol turned up to be grey and can not be changed, so whole issue of using the hebrew in caption become irrelavent.

Hi. You need to see the engine for the caption track (right click the caption track header and choose Track Settings...) to South Asian and Middle Eastern. This will enable RTL.

 

If you set the app preference to South Asian and Middle Eastern, it will make that the default for future caption tracks you create, but you still need to manually change existing tracks.

Thanks. How do you manually change existing tracks?

You change an existing track as Mike said in the first part:

"...right click the caption track header and choose Track Settings...) to South Asian and Middle Eastern."

 

The track header is the left side of the timeline. Right click in that Caption Track's area and pick Track Settings.
