Modify 3D text depth and edges in Final Cut Pro
One of the most obvious differences between 2D text and 3D text is that 3D text has
depth.
This attribute, as well as a number of other basic aspects of a 3D title’s appearance (such
as text weight, edge style, and corner style), can be set in the 3D Text section of the Text
inspector.
Adjust 3D text depth
1. Select a 3D title in the Final Cut Pro timeline.
2. In the 3D Text section of the Text inspector, drag the Depth slider to the left to
decrease depth, or to the right to increase depth.
Tip: To create different letters at different depths, select the letters in the Text field at
the top of the Text inspector. The 3D Text controls then affect only the selected letters.
For more information about working with individual letters, see Text inspector controls in
Final Cut Pro.
