When editing captions I often resize the bounding box depending if they are one line or two. Auto-generated captions always have line breaks - sometimes after a single word. Which means going to each caption block just to delete these superfluous spacings
Was really hoping NOT to find this is a widespread problem, but after years, can we really not improve this feature? It's popular, it's a huge time saver and it's buggy of course. That said, exactly how much coding would be necessary to FIX this one problem? I mean, leave new features alone for 2 days, fix the code, thousands happier. Too much?
There are multiple factors that determine how captions format. In PR 2023, the latest 24.6.1, and a recent Beta (25.1.8), I can get captions all on one line. But I can break that just by changing the font, the font size, the number of characters per line in the caption creation settings, etc.
I'm assuming we're talking subtitles (max 72 characters per line) and not, for example, 608 with a max of 42.
I'm not arguing against making the options more flexible; I just want to test how PR is currently working with a desired workflow, and what the goal is.
