How do I add overlay text to my interactive video?

Asked 2 years ago

Hi there, I am creating an interactive video using Tolstoy and would like to add overlay text to the video to give customers an explanation of how to interact with the video. Is there a step-by-step guide to adding overlay text?

You can add overlay text to your Tolstoy by entering it in the "Type here overlay text for your video" box or as closed captions on the first Builder tab. Each part of the video can have its own overlay text. You can also add buttons with text on them under "Edit buttons".
