2 color text

I've been using Vegas for years, and there's no problem creating my subtitles. But when I want my text to be two different colors, I can't do it apart if I put a mask on the text and a color effect on top, but it's very complicated to do.
anyone have a solution?

I use Titler Pro when I want to do something like that. Otherwise, you could use TWO titler events - one above the other - one for each color.

@Anvil This may be an easier way to mask: Some text generators allow you to adjust the transparency of the text, so that whatever is on the track below will show through the text, probably a color gradient adjusted as needed.

The inability to add more colors to text is incomprehensible in the 21st century. The internal subtitler does not develop at all. I do not use it.

I love and use ProtypeTitler which has been deprecated by the developers.

@pierre-k Yeah, but sometimes Protype Titler can be time consuming and cumbersome to use.
