motion graphics title problem

if I change the size of text in a motion graphics title to overlay video it reverts to original size when I test by playing that section of the video. Other parameters like overlay stay but the size doesn't and I don't know how to lock it in to the size I want. Any ideas will be much appreciated.

What Motion Graphics title are you using? Many don't allow you to change font size, just font type but allow overall scaling to change size.

I don't have Motion Graphics 015 title, but from what I've seen, so much of CL template offerings always have massive restrictions when it comes to just basic customizations. Basically, you only have the controls they expose to you, which in this case is not font size.

In your OP you said you "change the size of text", just how did you do that? As mentioned prior, you can scale everything but I see no way through the exposed controls that you have to change font size, just other attributes of the template text blocks.

Hi,

Jeff is correct, some titles have more built in UI flexibility than others. I don't know of a way to identify what titles do what, other than by trying them.
