Copying and pasting attributes in new text tool

I'm just trying to find a way to paste attributes from one text clip to multiple others. With the old tool I've have saved a preset style. Any ideas?

    I found a quick and easy way to handle this. I ran into an issue myself where I added subtitles for a 2 minute piece, but didn't tweak the settings for drop shadow/color/etc. until AFTER I created them all (like a dummy).

     

    What I found in CC2019, was that within the Essential Graphics panel there is a "Master Styles" section, and I was able to save a style there. It produced a Master Styles item in Project Folder.

     

    I was then able to select all the text layers in my timeline, then I simple dragged the style from project bin and held down the Option key (mac) and dropped it on any of the text layers. Voila, the same treatment applied to all!

        To get running with the new EGP, which works very differently than we're all used to, I recommend watching some tutorials ...

        First, by James Strawn, one of the actual engineers on the project ...

        Essential Graphics in Premiere Pro CC 2017.1.1 on Vimeo

        Then reTooled.net ...

        reTooled.net – After Effects & Premiere Pro – April 2017- The Essential Graphics Panel in Depth

        And also ...

        The NEW Essential Graphics Panel in Premiere Pro CC 2017 (Spring Update) - YouTube

        Between them, they seem to cover most things.
