As you can see (“shotcut.png”), I have created a Text: Rich element with some text in it. To confirm, that it actually saved what I have added, I have taken a look at the .mlt project file, and yes; it is also included here (see “shotcut project file.png”) When playing the video in the Preview Win…

I’m afraid so. The default is black, but the preview window (Visual User Interface) shows it as white. Just select the text and choose the color WHITE explicitly. This has caught out quite a few people and personally I think it is not the right thing to do.

Text: Rich not included in exported Video
