Hey everyone! I'm creating some TRY screen recordings and want to set a custom shape for the Hint captions. From what I'm reading there doesn't appear to be a way to set the shape type and size. Is this still the case?
That's right, Karyn. What you can do is create a custom shape, then use the format painter to apply the same shape formatting to the default hint caption shapes.
I'll let our Product team know your need for a custom hint caption--thanks for reaching out!
Please sign me up as a proponent of this too. I would rather a caption didn't have shadowed text and also fade in/out animation. Seems like a basic ask, that we would be able to design our own caption style without having to touch every slide with a painter (and the animation painter). Thank you in advance!
Thanks for adding your voice to this request, Jan!
While there still isn't a way to set a default style screen recording caption including text format and animation, we are tracking this request. If we add this feature in the future, we'll let you know!
