Bug when previewing text window?

I'm new to VMS so please be gentle with me if I get the terminology wrong!

I created a title screen for the start of my movie. I thought it might be nice to have the text subtly changing colour. In the text window I set the colour of the text and then added a keyframe. For the first two or three keyframes I could see my colour changes take effect in the preview window. However, after that the preview window seems to stop responding. I can see that the colour changes I set have taken as they occur when I preview using the play button.

Am I doing something wrong or is there a fault here?

I've noticed a similar thing, and others here have reported it as well. In my case, like yours, the effect appears to be applied by playing the video in the timeline, but in the preview window it doesn't appear to work right.

Thanks for the reassurance that it's not me doing something wrong!
