How do you import and modify Essential Graphics templates (EGTs)?

• A. Edit EGTs exclusively in the Graphics panel; drag onto timeline is not required.
• B. Import a template from the Essential Graphics panel or Graphics workflow, drag onto the timeline, and modify text, graphics, color, and motion in the Essential Graphics panel.
• C. EGTs can only be used in vertical video projects.
• D. You must export and re-import to edit EGTs.

Answer: (B)

Essential Graphics templates are designed to be imported into your sequence and then edited right in Premiere Pro. The workflow starts by bringing a template into the project—either from the Essential Graphics panel or via the Graphics workflow—and then dragging it onto the timeline. Once it’s on the timeline, you customize it using the Essential Graphics panel. There you can edit the text, swap to your own copy, adjust fonts, colors, and any other visual properties the template exposes, and tweak motion-related controls like position, scale, and animation parameters. This approach keeps all edits centralized in Premiere Pro, so you don’t need to export and re-import anything, and you can quickly iterate as your project evolves. The idea that you must edit only in the Graphics panel without placing the template on the timeline isn’t correct, and templates aren’t limited to vertical video nor require re-imports to change.
