keep the characteristics of the formatted text
After I set the font, size, edge, color, alignment, etc. on open captions, I export it as a new .srt file and I import this new file into the same project, or a new project on another computer and all the formatting is gone. It is very painfully to do it all over again every time - color, the size, the font etc. I even tried to open the same project in which I did the formatting on another computer, and the formatting goes back to default. Please fix this. Also, I get this bug both on windows 10 and Mac OS Sierra: When I change something in the text, like some words, or modify the size, sometimes it doesn't apply instantly - I have to save the project, close it and re-open it to see the changes.

This is implemented in 13.1 and beyond. There is an SRT styling option, and it also saves presets.
