What to do if the text/element I applied is not showing up?

Filmora automatically places all text and graphic elements on a dedicated top-layer track above your video footage. If these elements aren't appearing, try these solutions:

Step 1: Verify Visibility

  • Check that your text/graphic track isn't hidden (eye icon enabled)

  • Confirm the element isn't obscured by other layers or effects

Step 2: Technical Checks

  1. Network Connection

    • Test with a different network (WiFi → Ethernet or vice versa)

    • Temporarily disable VPN/firewall to rule out connection blocks

  2. System Refresh

    • Restart your computer

    • Relaunch Filmora and recreate the element

  3. Software Update

    • Navigate to: Help > Check for Updates...

    • Install any available updates

    • Review patch notes for text/element-related fixes

Advanced Solutions

  • Create a new project to test if the issue persists

  • Send your issue screen recording through Help - Feedback for further help.
