About subtitle colors
Timeline color sets

each clip to ensure maximum visibility or to distinguish, for example, between characters in a film. Before you define
the colors, it is important to understand the following concepts:
•
A timeline color set consists of a maximum of nine colors, each with its own opacity setting.
•
The colors are divided into three subtitle groups so that you can vary the subtitle colors depending upon the
background or speaker.
•
Each subtitle group contains a value for the fill, stroke, and anti-alias color.
