Is it possible to add a (visible) Subtitle in Dorico Elements?

[joshstackhouse]

This is probably a skill issue but I’ve been going in circles trying to figure this out. It seems like the ways to make your subtitle visible are to either a) edit your page template — which is not an available feature in Elements, or b) add a token via a text box — which is not an available feature in Elements. So, am I to understand that it is not possible to show a subtitle in Elements? That seems like a pretty basic feature to restrict to Pro…

Perhaps not ideal, but you could add the Title and subtitle in the other info field in Project info with a line break, then copy it to the Title field. Will be the same size, though.

Here, the ** means bold.

Or edit the Title field in Engrave mode:

Hi @joshstackhouse, and welcome to the forum.

b) add a token via a text box — which is not an available feature in Elements

You can add tokens in Dorico Element: double click on an existing item (Title for example) and choose Edit frame content:

Fantastic, thank you! I spent forever on something that was such a quick solve!

Hi @joshstackhouse, I think @jesele deserves the Solution checkmark, as he replied first.

Nah, I’m not sure that I was, and your answer was better.
