A window appears, suggesting several title styles for you to choose from.

Choose a title style and drag it onto the clip where you want a title.

For example, you might choose Formal for a wedding video or Scrolling Credits for the end of a movie. Pay attention to the purple shadow that appears over the clip as you hover. It lets you know if the title will last for the entire clip or just the first or last third. Once you’ve chosen a title, a blue icon appears above the clip.
