Generated Text Media can't be dragged to edge of screen.

Movie Studio Platinum 17. Win 10.

Moving text in preview window. Text media seems to be anchored via some scaling factor. Like I drag the container box 2 inches, and the actual text only moves 1 inch. So, when the box gets dragged all the way to the edge of the screen, the actual text has only moved half way to the edge of the screen.

What setting controls this? I've had this issue in the past.

I GOT IT! When adding generated media, I right-clicked in the picture-in-picture timeline, and not in the TEXT timeline!

Would need to see screenshots showing exactly what you are seeing and doing.

@GoodEnough, You can upload images and video direct to your forum post so people don't have to go to another website just to see them... Just click on the "upload file" button to the left of the "face" button.

And the screenshot you uploaded only shows the preview screen. Need to see the settings for Titler also. And might be helpful to show a "before" and "after" comparison.
