Adding a title in iMovie 10 causes it to freeze

When I try to add a title in iMovie 10.1.8 to a short video clip, iMovie becomes unresponsive for at least minutes. I've tried dragging a title to the timeline, and positioning the playhead at the desired location and double-click the title. I'm looking at the iMovie Help narrative for adding a title.

What am I doing wrong? How can one add a title without iMovie freezing up?

Running High Sierra on a 2017 iMac.

iMac, macOS Sierra (10.12.4), 16 GB RAM

Well, the Apple forums are just as helpful now as in the past.

I found some troubleshooting info onnthe Web and blew away the preference file and another file, restarted iMovie and the freezing stopped.

Apple, your support of your applications is pathetic.
