Edit design and properties

Change text, layout, style, media, 3D transforms, and color for a selected element.

Select an element, click Inspector, then open Design to change what it says and how it looks.

The Design inspector shows the controls that apply to the selected element.

The available sections depend on the selected element.

Common tasks

• Text: wording, font, weight, size, line height, alignment, and spacing.
• Layout: position, size, spacing, and alignment.
• Style: fill, border, radius, opacity, shadow, and visual effects.
• Media: source, fit, crop, and element-specific playback settings.
• Motion: animation and keyframes.
• 3D: supported perspective and transform controls.
• Grade: color adjustments for images and video.

Make one type of change at a time

If the element feels wrong, identify whether the problem is:

• the content;
• the hierarchy;
• the layout;
• the visual style;
• the timing;
• the motion.

Changing all six at once makes the result difficult to judge and harder to undo selectively.

Check readability

After styling text:

1. view it at the final output size;
2. play the full entrance and exit;
3. check contrast over every background it crosses;
4. confirm it remains on screen long enough to read.

Use Color grading for a deeper media workflow.
