Unusable captions in 2021

[MarkusStrömqvist]

 

This may seem like a small problem but is really huge.

You must be able to remove the black space after the last word on the second line.

(The first image is from the new (flawed) captions tool in 2021, the last is from the "old" 2020 version.)

It looks terrible when one line is much shorter than the other.

My current workaround: export a clip with only subtitles in version 2020 and import it and key it in the 2021 version...

Thank you in advance,

Markus

Users have asked for many different options. The current behavior is what I am calling "adaptive per caption." Adaptive meaning the background resizes to the text, and "per caption" meaing it uses all lines in the caption to set the size. What you want (which is what traditional captions are and what many users are asking for) is "adaptive per line" - the background resizes to each line.

Here's another thread, but the feature request it links to is for getting drop shadow on the whole background box.

I don't have a link to a feature request for your specific request. There should be one. If you find one or add one, post a link to it here so we can upvote.
