Hello. I need help with this problem of title editing. Normally it's really fine to edit a video, even with 4k resolution on my laptop. However when editing a title (aka text editing), it is extremely laggy on just a few character inputted into the text box, or even moving the box around. Also, the text seems kinda blurry at small size (Font: Trebuchet MS, Normal, Size: 18). The render has already been set to Ultra HD.

Any helps or answers are appreciated!

Yes, many time text seems blurry for no reason.

Text editor consumes huge ram. I also edit HD video without any issue. Whenever i write some text then PD takes huge time to show that text. There might be huge memory leakege issue in it.

Now a days, PD developers are hardly adding new features and solving any issue.

The only solution that minimizes but doesn't solve, if you have a lot of effects (material) in other video tracks, disable it and leave only the text active, during title editing.

Even with title alone is already lagging, it doesn't matter which clips or effects I just put in. This is also slow on Low preview resolution by the way

I can't use this editor at all if this issue still persist. My videos are heavily rely on titles. Subtitles are okay, but because the editing of it (sizes, color, etc.) is limited
