How to rotate text in shotcut (Simplified)
We can see that there is no text rotation option available in the text filter so far, so we will rotate the text in some other way and all we need is to have transparent text image or images to add to the video separately.
Important: You have to follow the sequence for applying filters otherwise it won’t rotate right
1: Select “Size and Position
2: Rotate and Scale
3: Opacity
