How to change font choice on all text clips at once, after creating them

Hi,

You are looking for a way to change the font for all your text clips at once in CapCut! Manually editing 100 text clips would be incredibly time-consuming.

Unfortunately, CapCut currently does not have a direct "apply to all" button specifically for changing fonts across multiple text clips simultaneously. You are right that the "Add to Brand Kit" feature is for saving styles for future use, not for applying changes retroactively to existing clips in your current project.

However, there are a few workarounds and techniques you can use to speed up the process significantly, even if there isn't a one-click solution:

Workaround methods to change fonts faster in CapCut:

1. Copy and paste text styles: This is the most efficient method within CapCut to apply font changes to multiple clips:

   • Step 1: Style your Font in One Text Clip: First, manually change the font and any other style attributes (size, color, style, etc.) in one of your text clips to exactly how you want it to look for all clips.
   • Step 2: Copy the Style: Select the styled text clip in the timeline. Navigate to the "Style" menu for that text clip. At the bottom of the Style options, you should see a "Copy Style" button. Tap or click on this button.
   • Step 3: Select Multiple Text Clips: In your timeline, select all the other text clips you want to change to the same font. You can do this by:
     • Clicking the first clip, holding down Shift (on PC) or Command (on Mac), and then clicking the last clip in the sequence to select a range.
     • Clicking individual clips while holding down Shift or Command to select non-contiguous clips.
   • Step 4: Paste the Style: With all the desired text clips selected, go back to the "Style" menu (it can be any of the selected text clips). Now, instead of "Copy Style," you should see a "Paste Style" button (it might appear in the same location where "Copy Style" was). Tap or click "Paste Style".

   CapCut will then apply the font and style from your initially styled clip to all the other selected text clips. This is much faster than individual editing.

2. Using "Brand Kit" (For future projects, not directly for current): While "Brand Kit" doesn't directly solve your current problem of changing existing clips, it's still useful for future projects:

   • Create your desired text style: Style a text clip with the font and attributes you like.
   • Add to Brand Kit: In the "Style" menu, use the "Add to Brand Kit" button. Save this style with a descriptive name (e.g., "My Project Font").
   • In future projects: When you add new text clips in new projects, you can easily apply your saved Brand Kit style from the "Brand Kit" section, ensuring consistency from the start. This won't help with your current 100 clips, but it's good practice for future videos.

3. Consider project templates (for future similar projects): If you frequently create videos with similar text styles, you could create a template project:

   • Set up a template project: Create a CapCut project and add a few placeholder text clips styled with your desired font and style. Save this project as a template (if CapCut offers template saving - check the "File" or "Project" menu for "Save as Template" or similar).
   • Start new projects from template: For future videos, start by opening your template project. This will give you a starting point with your preferred font style already in place. You'll still need to adjust the text content for each new video, but the base styling will be there.

Utilize Auto Captions for bulk text

If your project involves subtitles or captions, the Auto Captions feature can be beneficial:

1. Generate Auto Captions:

   • Navigate to the "Text" menu and select "Auto Captions".
   • Choose the appropriate language and let CapCut generate captions for your video.

2. Customize the Caption Style:

   • Once generated, modify the font, size, color, and positioning of the captions.
   • These changes will apply to all auto-generated captions uniformly.

This approach ensures consistency across all captions and reduces manual editing time.

Additional tips:

• Plan Ahead: For future projects, consider setting up a Brand Kit within CapCut. This allows you to define default fonts and styles, ensuring consistency and saving time on formatting.

• Stay Updated: CapCut regularly updates its features. It's advisable to check for the latest version or consult CapCut's official tutorials for any new functionalities that might assist in bulk editing.

Limitations and Feature Requests:

• No true "Apply to All" for fonts currently: As of now, CapCut lacks a dedicated "apply font to all" button. The "Copy and Paste Style" method is the closest workaround.
• Feature request to CapCut: If you feel a direct "apply to all fonts" feature is essential (and many users would likely agree!), we highly recommend sending feedback to CapCut development team requesting this feature. You can usually find feedback options within the CapCut app settings or send them an email at [email protected]. User feedback helps prioritize future feature development.

While CapCut doesn't have a one-click "apply to all fonts" feature, the "Copy and Paste Style" method is your best bet for quickly changing the font across your 100 text clips. For future projects, utilize the "Brand Kit" and consider project templates to streamline your workflow from the beginning.
