FCPX Default Title Problem

The default title, "Far Far Away" isn't showing any text in the preview screen.


I was wanting to make a star wars style video but when ever I insert this title into the timeline the default random text will appear for a moment before disappearing entirely. When I try inserting custom text it won't show anything.


All settings are set to default, I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the program. All other titles work without issues.

Start by trashing the preferences. Hold ⌥ ⌘ as you double click the library you want to open to launch the application. A dialog appears asking you if you want to Delete Preferences. If you don't do this while double-clicking your library, the application will open a default Untitled library.  


If that doesn't work, try reinstalling the application from the App Store. Still no title we should look for a software conflict. Please post an EtreCheck report https://etrecheck.com giving the application Full Disk Access in Privacy System Preferences. Copy the report and use the Add Text button to paste the result into reply box.
