Annotations and Text Size

Hi, Hello,

I am using annotations for the first time, and though I chose the largest size (28) it looks like the smallest size when the video is playing and is barely visible at all. I have seen videos where the font looks the appropriate size, how can I do that?? Thoughts??

Thank you!! :D
 
I would drag the corners of the annotation out to enlarge it, when you make them smaller or leave them as is the text shrinks or stays the same size regardless of its size style setting :)
 
I've tried doing that, and yes, they are resized but on the annotations editor the text looks the size I want it, and on the video it's tiny, I don't know what else to do. Another option would be leaving the annotation blank and making a title to put in it, maybe that would be larger?
 
The title annotations can be much bigger, you could try it. It sounds like a bug if you are setting it to a larger size after stretching it and its shrinking still.
 
Just tried it, even the titles look puny. I mean...they're so small it looks like dots rather than letters :( *sigh*[DOUBLEPOST=1400266015,1400265856][/DOUBLEPOST]Those are images of the difference in size from the editor to the video itself.

Do you have a link to the video unlisted you can share? Remove the http:// and www. to post it here or PM me it and I will have a look, just save them as is if you can.

Just saw your edit, it could be a bug.

Thank you so much for this, btw. I'm just trying to make my videos good and it seems that I keep running into third party 'issues' that make them look unfinished.
 
No problem, they look fine on my end in your video as they should, have you tried another browser or computer?[DOUBLEPOST=1400266970][/DOUBLEPOST]Press control and zero on your keyboard, that might work.
