    How do I set a default title and text style on Quick?

    aperture14 Community Member

      On Adobe Premiere Essentials 13 video editing, if I use Quick is it possible to set a default style for titles and text? I see instructions for setting a default style in Expert, but that doesn't seem to work in Quick. Thanks.

          What is this Premiere Elements Essentials 13? I know the program only as Adobe Premiere Elements 13 for Windows or Adobe Premiere Elements 13 for Mac. On what computer operating system is it running and is it a pre-installed program from the computer manufacturer?

           

          So, if you have some modified version of Premiere Elements 13 Windows or Mac, I cannot give you a yes or no answer to

          if I use Quick is it possible to set a default style for titles and text?

          In Adobe Premiere Elements 13 Windows (assumed Mac also), there should be no problem in creating a text title in the Quick workspace and saving a particular text style and setting that created text style to the default. Are you OK with doing that in the Expert workspace if not the Quick workspace?

           

          Please give us more details of your situation so that we can customize a reply for you.

           

          Thank you.

            Sorry -- you have the name of the software right. I had it wrong. I still can't figure out how to set a text style for an entire project in Quick or Expert. The instructions for doing it in Adjust don't work. Also, when we tried to save a default style, it wouldn't save. Thanks.

              For now I am assuming that your Premiere Elements 13 is on Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit.

              Please try to run through my mini test run in post 1 of the above thread. Premiere Elements 12 and 13

              should be the same in the mechanics of doing this. Hopefully 13 will work better than 12 on the project to project

              hold of the default text. However, even 12 is doing better with the hold of newly set default text.

               

              We will be watching for your results. If problems, please tell me the exact spot where the problem exists, and we

              will target that area.

                Thanks, ATR. I worked through the procedure you recommended, and did manage to change the default. However, it didn't stick. The next time I tried to insert a caption, the default had been reset to Berkeley, again. I appreciated your suggestion, nonetheless.

                  Thanks for the follow up.

                   

                  From what I have observed Premiere Elements 12 has a problem remembering the new defaults. But, as mentioned, lately it has been holding

                  its change in default for within same project as well as from new project to new project.

                   

                  When you tried the scenario suggested for Premiere Elements 13, did the new default hold for within the same project if not for from project to project?

                   

                  Please remind me what computer operating system your version 13 is running on.

                   

                  Thanks.
