Subtitle Formatting

I have a question about subs in a VideoScreen. Right now I can successfully import an .srt file and it will show on the screen during a video play. The problem is that occasionally a long sub line will be cut off on the left and right, as opposed to having a line break. I'm wondering if there is any workaround to fix this, or if it has to be done manually in the .srt file. Also, does anyone know if there will be any subtitle changes or added features in sdk3? I haven't looked at the documentation extensively yet.

On a side note, I was also curious if there was any way to change the color of subs.

Thanks Guys.

Re: Subtitle Formatting

There is no formatting of the subtitles displayed in the SRT file. It is just plain text and lines are clipped as needed.

There is also no theming of these subtitles.
