Moving PGS Subtitles

[koberulz]

I have a movie where the subtitles are below the picture, in the black letterbox bars. I want to move them up, into the picture area. Is there an easy way to do this? Subtitle Edit will let me reposition each line individually, but I don't really fancy doing that for thousands of lines...

In SE's SUP editor settings, set your desired bottom value. Then select all (Ctrl A) and go Tools --> Alignment and choose Bottom/center.

Works perfectly!

Actually scratch that, if I bulk select it keeps marking all the selected lines as "forced," which a) ties the program up for ages while it does that and b) I don't want to do.

Not over here. Selecting all using Ctrl+A doesn't set any line as forced. I'm on Subtitle Edit version 4.0.10

Ctrl+A doesn't, no. But I had a subtitle where some were top-aligned, and shift-clicking to select multiple lines caused everything to get marked as forced.

...shift-clicking to select multiple lines caused everything to get marked as forced.

This is annoying behaviour indeed. Selecting lines should be a separate step from marking them as forced.
As a workaround directly after selecting, you can rightclick on the still selected lines and toggle forced. This will take away the forced marks.
