If you have a lot of text and graphics in your Adobe Premiere Pro project, and you want to change or update the text elements, this is the quickest way to do it.
Instead of finding it in the “Timeline” window, selecting it, going to the “Program” window, and selecting it again, go to the “Text” window. You can find this in the menu under “Window” and “Text”.
Here, you can change all your captions in one place under the tab “Captions” but you can also change all your text graphics under the tab “Graphics”. Here you’ll see all the text elements in your timeline.
Just double-click on the window name to maximize the window, change the text to whatever you want and then double-click on the window name again to go back to the previous layout.

![How to scale a shape in any direction in After Effects
If you want to scale or resize a shape in only one direction in Adobe After Effects, for example left, up, right, down, this is how you can do that.
First, you want to open your Shape layer, go to “Contents”, “Rectangle”, “Rectangle Path” (or “Ellipse” and “Ellipse Path” if it is a circle) and then unselect “Constrain proportions” next to “Size” to resize the height and width individually.
If you go to “Transform” and “Scale”, it will resize the whole shape, including the stroke, and that is why we are using the “Size” property instead.
Now, to resize the shape in only one direction, hold down “option/alt” while clicking on the stopwatch next to “Anchor Point” (under Transform).
Here you want to paste the expression that you can find in the video description underneath this video, just make sure to put the name of your shape in the first parentheses and the name of your shape path in the second parentheses.
Now, when you resize the the width and height with the “Size”-property, it will only resize in one direction.
To do this in the opposite direction, just do the same thing but instead of dividing the width and height in “2” in your expression, divide it in “-2” and now it will grow in the opposite direction.
And if you want to move the stroke of this shape to the outside or inside of the shape, check the tutorial that I will link here at the end and don’t forget to subscribe.
💻 EXPRESSION:
box_width = content (Rectangle 1) .content(Rectangle Path 1) .size[0];
box_height = content (Rectangle 1) .content(Rectangle Path 1) .size[1];
[box_ width/2, box_height/2]
(Rename Rectangle 1 and Rectangle Path 1 if needed, based on your shape name and path name)
