Having the create title option disabled usually means that the Kdenlivetitle module in MLT is not compiled. Did you manually compile MLT? if so you must explicitely enable Qt6 and disable Qt5 in the cmake configure command. Also check that you don't have old Qt5 modules left in usr/lib/mlt-7/ folder (or wherever you install)

I use Tumbleweed rpms. I don't compile anything
Comment 5 Gerry Gavigan 2024-03-15 23:13:50 UTC
There didn't seem to be an mlt folder as you describe. However, searching using YaST revealed that a likely suspect had not been installed. All is now well.  Thank you

Someone has just changed status to "grave" so I feel obliged to add that following advice received I found the missing dependency in the Tumbleweed repository and it fixed the problem, so.it was never a kdenlive problem but rather an upstream hiccup following the update to Plasma 6/Qt6.
