How do I lock the title overlay to the video? I'm getting frustrated with
the text always moving around when I try to insert another clip.

==========================
If you go to Timeline view...you will
see your overlay in the "Title Overlay"
track....just drag it to where you want it.

When I add another picture, I've noticed that the text will stay put on the timeline but now it's not in sync with the original video. Do you have any ideas on how to keep everything together?

=============================
I understand the question...it's just that
the only way I know to manage the
titles is to drag them into the position
I want them in.
