HD Titles Cut Off when used on 4K Project that is published.

It looks like the transform tool was used to move the title, and the title was also moved so it's outside the bounding box of the frame. If you click the title in the timeline once it will show the bounding box if transform is active. If you double click the title in the timeline, it will show a control button to reposition the title independent of the transform function.

If you go into the Effects Inspector > Transforms, you should see that the Position X is some negative distance (about 1/3 of your project size) and the Position Y is some positive distance (about 1/4 to 1/3 the height of your project). You need to Zero these out. If Scaling is < 100, you should reset that as well.

Then in the Viewer, click the text and drag it to position.

What you have to be aware of is that everything in Final Cut has its own "viewport". Clips have a viewport and Titles/Generators have viewports. Anything that crosses outside of the viewport is cropped off. In fact, if you use an Effect to transform the position of a clip within its viewport, then try to apply **another effect** afterwards to restore the position, any content that went outside the viewport is never seen again! (until you remove the effects and use a different method).

For a Title, the viewport is your project's size. If you alter it's position (including Z position), scale, or crop settings in the Effects inspector, you are changing where in space or the size that viewport is, and therefore also the boundaries at which content will disappear if moved/animated "out of frame". Example:

As I said, non-zero Crop settings will constrict that viewport even more.

You lose the "top" color on the 3D Text going to 2D because the Material > Front (and possibly Front Edge) no longer pertains to the font settings. Font Face settings are used instead. It really shouldn't matter if you're using 3D or 2D Text as it pertains to the concept of "viewport".

Post screenshots odd what you’re seeing where. Give a screenshot of your project properties and export settings.

One other thing: if the Title you're using is actually "3D Text" - you can't click and drag the text, you have to use the Position parameter **in the 3D Text title** since that title is set up to NOT be editable in the FCP viewer.

I think in recent versions Basic 3D and others have a drag button in the Viewer.

Exactly which titles are you using?

So where is it being cut off? What's the title you're using?

Ok - my bad... I was looking at the wrong title...LOL — still — not editable in the viewer happens for some titles...
