I am doing screen recording in SL2 and I suffer a lot with the formatting of text bubbles. Is there any way to pre-format these things before recording my screen? Or perhaps a way to change the style of all the text bubbles with the same setting, just as I would do it in word with a paragraph style.
Hi, Attila -- In addition to Leslie's suggestion, I also wanted to add that to the best of my knowledge, you cannot format these captions beforehand, as they are set to default. But once you have the file inserted, click on the first caption, create the format you prefer, and use the Format Painter tool to apply it to the rest of the slides. Hope that gives you another option to achieve what you are hoping to do!
Thanks for these, as Christie points out, you can change the default style AFTER you create the recording. Now my scenes have an average 150 slides, so this is really a painful exercise.
Format Painter is a good tool, but does not copy everything e.g. opacity to other objects.

Hi Attila!
You can save as a 'Set to Default Shape' as explained in this tutorial.
