no titles?

Hi, I'm new at DaVinci Resolve 17. I'm following tutorials to learn how to use it, but I'm at a standstill with the TITLES because I can't edit them. When I get to the attached section, I can select and drag a title, yet not much more. Not even insert a text anywhere, since the relevant icons for titles are gray or not available or effectless, and whatever I click, nothing happens with respect to titles. The Blackmagic manual speaks about a 'tools' icon underneath the clip viewer, but in the attachment neither a 'title' icon nor (later) an 'open inspector' button can be seen. So what?

Hey Mauro,
Add your title, you can then use your mouse to select the text directly in the viewer window and then edit it as necessary. Or, with the title instance selected in the timeline, open the Inspector window to see all the controls for the selected element.
Heres a Youtube video I just randomly selected from a quick Google search. It shows adding and using Titles in the Edit Page in Resolve 16... the same principles apply to Resolve 17 and to using Titles in the Cut Page:

From your screenshot, it looks like your inspector tab is closed (top right). Just click on the word and the panel should populate the right side of the screen.

For anybody new to Resolve editing (including titles), be sure to read the free textbook "The Editor’s Guide to DaVinci Resolve 17," available on Blackmagic's Training website:

No matter how much you already know about editing, this will help you get up and running with the specifics of Resolve.

To show the under-viewer toolset, select the title (or other clip) in the timeline. As Bryan mentions, you can click on the Inspector to access the full controls.

Lastly, please do consider Marc's suggested training set - as well as the official video tutorials in https://www.youtube.com/c/BlackmagicDesignOfficial - to quickly get acquainted with Resolve fundamentals.
