Hello

 

How do we center the caption block for the entire transcription at once?

 

Thanks

Hello Bean,

 

Select all the captions in your sequence, go to the Essential Graphics Panel and select the center align text icon.

Thanks Andy, but only one line of captions centers at a time. How would we center the entire transcript?

To find the version of Premiere you are using, go to the Premiere menu at the top left corner of your montior and choose about Premiere Pro.

Where are you highlighting "the text in a box"? Is it the box of text in the Essential graphics panel, the caption window box or in the text in your program monitor?

If you look at my first reply to you above, I selected all the caption boxes in the entire caption track in your Timeline/Sequence.  With them all selected, I then went into the Essential Graphics Panel and applied the centered align text or zone middle as you stated. This will then center all your captions at once.

 

Don't stress about being new. We all had to start somewhere and asking questions in this forum is the best way to get help when you are stuck. I hope these tips help you with your project and you enjoy using Premiere for your video projects.


I figured out through a friend a way to do it but I feel just a few months back there was a short cut.
