17 conversions
Type it once. See every style.
These run the same rules as the script: smart title casing, acronym handling, quote-aware sentence case. Swap in one of your own titles.
Under the hood
Built for how titles actually live in Resolve.
Three scopes
The title under the playhead, every Text+ and Text3D on every video track, or the selected nodes in an open Fusion comp.
Stays on your page
Works from the Edit or Cut page without jumping you over to Fusion. The window opens straight away.
Keyframed text is safe
Animated text gets converted at every keyframe. Position and transform keyframes are never touched.
Linked text is left alone
Text driven by a Text Follower, a published input or an expression gets skipped, so the link stays intact. The window tells you how many it skipped.
Ten levels of undo
The in-window Undo button works from any page. Edits also land on Fusion's own undo stack, so Ctrl+Z works while the comp is open.
Accents and other alphabets
Handles Latin accents, Greek and Cyrillic properly. Emoji and anything unrecognised come through untouched.
crème brûlée → CRÈME BRÛLÉETitle Case that knows the rules
Short words like of, the and for stay lowercase mid-title. Acronyms stay caps, hyphenated words and the word after a colon get capitalized.
state-of-the-art NASA tour: a guide → State-of-the-Art NASA Tour: A GuidePreview before you commit
The preview updates as you pick a conversion. Converting a whole timeline? It shows the first title and tells you how many will change.
How it works
Three steps. No retyping.
-
Open it
Workspace › Scripts › Utility › Type Converter. No restart needed after installing.
-
Pick a scope and a style
Choose the current clip, the whole timeline or a Fusion comp, then pick one of the 17 conversions and check the preview.
-
Apply
Every title in scope updates in place. Changed your mind? Undo steps back up to ten times.
Install
Copy the .lua file into your Utility scripts folder. User-level folders don't need admin rights.
After a timeline-wide apply, the Edit page viewer can take a nudge of the playhead to redraw.
FAQ
Questions
Will it mess up my animation?
No. It only rewrites the text itself. Keyframed text gets converted at each keyframe, and position, transform and style keyframes stay exactly as they were.
What about titles linked with Text Follower or expressions?
They're skipped. Writing to those inputs would break the link, so Type Converter leaves them alone and tells you how many it skipped.
Can I undo a conversion?
Yes, up to ten levels from the Undo button in the window, from any page. When the comp is open on the Fusion page, Ctrl+Z works too.
Which conversions lose information?
slug-case, camelCase and snake_case drop punctuation and line breaks, and the window warns you before you apply them. Undo brings the original back.
Does it work with languages other than English?
Case conversion covers Latin accents, Greek and Cyrillic. The Title Case minor-word rules are English.
