Options
- Delete individual silences manually by clicking the three dots and selecting Delete Ripple

- Change text alignment using the Zone selector (e.g., Center Zone, Bottom Align)
Watch out for
- Upgrading captions to graphics moves them from a dedicated caption track to a standard text layer on the timeline.
Tips
- Set a low maximum character count (e.g., 8-10) to ensure captions aren't too crowded on screen.
- Use the 'Delete All' pauses feature for a fast initial rough cut of a video with multiple takes.
- Create a Track Style to instantly sync visual changes across every subtitle in the project.
