[Bug 1402667] Re: "add title" function really hard to find

 

Ubuntu is a special case i.e menu is hidden and that's not all LInux
distribution. In more, like we will come on Window and on OS X. ...
I don't tag it like invalid because the idea of having an icon toolbar is a
good idea.
Thanks.

Title:
  "add title" function really hard to find

Status in OpenShot Video Editor:
  New

Bug description:
  Hi

  
  My girlfriend is using OpenShot for a school project. It does most of the things she wants to, but some functions are really hard to discover. For example, she wanted to show some text with the video as background, and she though OpenShot could not do it.

  In Ubuntu, the menu is hidden by default, so you only see the menu
  items after you mouse-over them. She did not find a title/text
  function, and she did not think to look in the menu bar, so she asked
  my help.

  Possible solutions:
   - Add "add title" icon to toolbar.
   - Add "Animated title" and "Title" as effect in the "Effects" tab.
   - Add "Titles and Text" tab next to "Effects"

  I have not looked at the code, but I think the first one will be the
  most easy one to accomplish.

  Extra:
   - Change "Title" to "Title or Text"


  
  Thanks
