Animated Title on screen longer

I have created a title of some text I want to overlay on the video and I have chosen to have it SlideInByCharacter and it works fine but a couple of seconds after it slides in, it disappears. I would like it to stay on the screen for longer - how do I increase the amount of time it stays after it finishes its animation? I have tried extending it but it just lengthens the time to slide in. I have tried splitting the title after it is finished but I just end up with two titles that slide in. This seems like it should be the easiest thing in the world and I am just missing something. I mean what good is a title if it's not there long enough to read it?

Thanks,

Rob.

Not with preset title animations.

The easiest way is to place the title on the timeline twice -- one right after the other. Apply your text effect to the first one but leave the copy uneffected.

Thanks Steve, that gets the job done albeit in a very cumbersome and laborious way Also, you used the word "copy" - as I'm sure you know, it actually can't be a copy as it will apply the animation to both even after the fact. I had to make a second independent title and go through all the work to get it the same font, font-size, color, and alignment to get it to work. Disappointing to say the least.

FYI You can copy the text separate and not the entire tile. IE: open a new title and remove the "TEXT HERE" then select the only text box in the first title and paste into the second blank title.
