Q: FCP X shuts off when editing text titles.

same problem with 'ë'

I did a copy/ paste from text edit. but it was not optimal. text was too smaal and resize was not possible.

I hope for an update.

Anyway FCPX crashes quite often.

Had the same problem with Latvian characters. In normal text editing application I use apostrophe (') to get "ā" instead of "a". In FCPX I can get the same accented characters while using the ALT key in combination with the latin character. That is "ALT + a" I get "ā" and FCPX doesn't crash.

How are you adding the special characters? 

In the American English version, I can add pretty much any "special character" by going to Edit > Special Characters (Option-Command-T) to get the system font characters.  I've mostly been adding accented Latin characters, which may or may not work for you, but I haven't had any crashes adding characters this way.  Pretty clunky if you have a lot of accented letters, but fine for the occasional one.

It happens to me all the time! And it ***** since, well, it's supposed to be a pro app, right? Living in Mexico (and applies to all Spanish and accent-language users), presenting a text without the proper grammar is like not differentiating between you're and your -it's just plain un professional.

Sadly, I see I'm not the only one with the issue...

Definitely works this way, but it ***** since almost every 3 words I need to do this time-consuming procedure. Chose to use Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 when using lots of text. Thumbs down Apple...

Really? You've tagged on to a thread that's almost 18 months old? Sorry I've been doing Spanish language titles without problem for some time. There's something else in your system that's causing this. Most likely a bad font.
