The Text inspector
The Text inspector has more adjustability than any other entity, so much so that the mind boggles at times, especially when venturing into the aspects of 3D text.
Important note
Note that text needs a Final Cut Pro title. Text cannot exist without having a title or generator as its container.

As noted in the previous section, every title is different, and so the way that text is handled will likely be different as well. I mention this here not to disturb you, but more to warn you that things may not always be as you would have expected. It’s this diversity that makes titling and adding text in Final Cut Pro so refreshingly unique.
I am not going to cover every little detail of the Text inspector panel, as a good proportion of it is what you would find in any word-processing app. However, there are sections in the panel that are specific to Final Cut Pro.
