[Bug 1245223] [NEW] adding support for user customized title templates

 

Public bug reported:

I'm developing a video tutorial of a piece of web software - and I add
footer text as captions to explain what's going on in the video.... It
would be nice if I could customize the title templates, making it
radically different than any of the others (ie grey stripe background,
black text, much smaller font, etc).

I can modify the SVG files in inkscape, but even if I place them in the
/usr/share/pyshared/openshot/titles/16x9 (or 4x3) directories, they
won't show up in the list. It would be nice to be able to add new title
templates from the menu itself, or at least allow for a user-specific
.openshot/titles directory that I can add my own customized title
templates to. There should be a GUI means to add or at least
modify/clone/import title templates.

For right now the only thing I could think of is to modify one of the
exiting SVG files, ie Footer_1.svg, to my own liking. Seems less than
ideal.

Other than that I'm really happy.
