Hi there! I know there's no way to link the font parameter of a text layer; is there any workaround or trick to change the font (typeface) for multiple text layers all at once?
Thanks in advance.
Final Cut doesn't appear to allow multiple text selections either in the Canvas or the Inspector.
If you need to change texts to all be the same font at the same time, you'll need to create a Rig Popup and make a menu.
Select all the text layers at once (use command-click if they're spaced out), then go to the Text Inspector and change the font. They *should* all update at once.
*There is an exception: IF you have one of the text layers "pinned", none of the others will update — only the pinned text layer will change its font. [By "pinned", if you look at the top right corner of the Inspector, there is a little "pushpin" icon with an underline. If the pin is touching the line, that layer's parameters are displayed regardless of what other layers may be selected, but you can only change parameter settings for the pinned layer (which can be quite useful sometimes...)]
Another way to "easily" (matter of opinion) change fonts is to change the font for one text object, then click and drag the Font parameter from the Text object and drop it on the other Text layers one by one.
Wow thanks for this! Did not know that.
Now the real question is: is it possible to do this as a title plugin in FCP? Let's say I'm creating a FCP title plugin and it has many text fields and I would like to change the font for all those texts all at once.
That's a shame. Thanks for the info!
