How do you get the text inside balloons or callouts to stay with each other??

When you add a text balloon or callout to a video, it appears that the text you type does not size and move accordingly with the balloon/callout?? They are two separate objects on the video - unrelated. I must be missing something. That makes no sense. Please - what am i doing wrong?

The callout and the text are two seperate objects which are independant of each other - see image - so you need to apply any movements to both objects.

I figured that was the case - it just seems a little redundant.

Thanks, John

Don't forget that you can copy the effects of one object and insert them onto another. Still a bit redundant but easier, and more accurate, than doing everything a second time.
