I can access Mask Designer for videos and images, but not for Titles.

Any idea where I can access it?

Thanks.

There isn't a title mask designer because titles are overlays and the background is always transparent.

What were you hoping to do? Does this old discussion help?

Before I upgraded from PowerDirector 365, I used Mask Designer on Titles.

I have a short video showing this (attached)

I used it a fair bit on the project.

Now that I upgraded, I cannot edit the clips with Mask Designer.

My apologies. I've never used tht feature and I didn't see it in the older versions of PD I checked before responding. I still have the previous version installed on my laptop and I can access it from the Tools menu.

Check the online help portal by pressing F1. Here's what I see

Thanks for pointing to my tutorial. I have asked Cyberlink to bring this feature back. It's only one of many changes the user community is asking to make. Hopefully they will reinstate it.
