Description Evert Vorster 2020-02-10 06:10:21 UTC 
SUMMARY
When adding a title clip with preview monitor scaling active I noticed that the text size much too large for the project resolution. It would appear that the title clip is using the preview monitor resolution, as the size of the text changes when I try different resolutions on the preview monitor. 

I have not tested this on rendering yet, as adding a title clip crashes the UI of kdenlive. I will report that separately. I can only imagine that the size of the text would be wrong in a final render as the project is rendered at the project resolution, and not the preview monitor resolution. 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Activate preview monitor scaling
2. Add title clip to project
3. Notice that the text is much too big for the resolution

OBSERVED RESULT
Text of a few points is much too large for a 4K project, looks more like a 320p project (which is where I set the preview monitor to)

EXPECTED RESULT
Title clips should:
1. Have their own resolution, so that they can be used between projects of different resolutions

2. Should default to the project resolution to ensure more quality at final render.
