Can you use different fonts in the same text box?
I know you used to be able to do it as I have a text box with multiple fonts from an old movie. But when I try to do it now, changing the font changes all the text, not just the highlighted text.

@lighthope Hi, yep select the text in the preview window,

You misunderstood the question.
If you select the text and change the font, the font of all the text in the text box changes, not just the part you highlight.
Hi
. . . . You misunderstood the question. . . . .
I do not think @Gid has misunderstood the question.
The example given demonstrated the correct procedure for changing the font using individual letters of a word, the same procedure applies to words, lines and paragraphs of the text, ie Highlight the amount of text you want to change, before setting the font.

As I said, that does not work. "If you select the text and change the font, the font of all the text in the text box changes, not just the part you highlight."
Hi John.
I think @lighthope means if they wanted to say change each letter in a word to a different colour and font would it be possible? and the answer to that is no.

I figured it out. I misunderstood what the text preview window was. I didn't realize you could select text in that.
@lighthope @CubeAce You can change the colour & the font.
You shouldn't be allowed to select text in that effects window. What is the point of it? All it does is confuse people, thinking they can edit the title there, when this happens ie they can't.

Hi John.
I did try to adjust text as described by Gid before posting but have just tried again. This time with better success but each change, either to a font, colour change, or border change froze the program for up to 20 seconds for each change.
I only had Firefox running in the background with the one tab open here to reply.

@CubeAce Hi, there's a very slight delay in my videos but just to check if I could see what if anything is going on I tried it again with MMS 2024 & Taskmanager open, this was taken straight after changing the colours & it shows very little happening, it doesn't give much of a clue about anything to be honest,
So why you get 20sec delay I dunno. I use the Studio driver but it's often mentioned on here that the Gaming driver is preferred, I don't know if that is the one that's recommended.
