Created attachment 105301 [details] Screenshot example BEHAVIOR I created a text item in the Title editor, and selected the radial button for Gradient to give it a gradient color, but the color didn't apply to the text -- it stayed black. EXPECTED BEHAVIOR When I select the radial button to switch to Gradient color, the color changes are immediately applied to the text. BUG DISCOVERED USING: Kdenlive 17.07.70 via ppa:kdenlive/kdenlive-master Ubuntu GNOME 17.04 x64 GNOME 3.24.0 desktop environment MLT 6.5.0 KDE Frameworks 5.31.0 Qt 5.7.1
UPDATE: Pressing "OK" does in fact apply the color effect, but the color changes aren't seen when re-entering the Title Editor. The user can't properly see what the text looks like to edit it.
Confirmed. AppImage 18.08.3 -> text in title clip gets the gradient only after double click the text. Windows 18.08.2 -> same behavior as under Linux but a gradient title can not be saved (save button is grayed out)
It seems that this report is related to a very old unmaintained version. A lot changed since then and it is likely that this has been fixed (I can not reproduce). Feel free to reopen this bug or create a new report if this is still happening with the latest version (https://kdenlive.org/en/download/)
