Apply Text Template

Apply a pre-built text design template to a text overlay. Replaces all styles with the template's complete visual design. Can optionally change text content too.

How It Works

Applies a named text design template. Each template is a complete visual package (font, colors, effects, shadows, backgrounds, spacing). The user does NOT need to say the exact template name — interpret their intent from mood, vibe, genre, or visual description and pick the best match.
