No choice of subtitle size, color in the new "PLEX" Windows desktop player

Just downloaded the new Plex “PLEX” for Windows desktops (not the Windows Store app), and tried it -

Plex – 15 Aug 19

Plex

In the settings for Player, there is absolutely nothing for subtitles - like size, color, position.
When playing movies, the subtitles are white with black border, and they are too large.

In contrast - on the older Web-based player/server with the player version 483, it is possible to adjust size, color and position.

Now - what is going to happen in the future?
Is this new player still an unfinished project and subtitle settings will be added, or what?
As it is, it is very difficult to watch the movie and read subtitles

Settings should be available during playback… but only for text based subtitles.
Plex cannot modify image based subtitles as they might have been derived from DVDs or Blu-Rays.

Thanks Tom,

You are correct, subtitle size can be changed in the playback settings - I somehow overlooked that.

But still, It would be nice to have the choice of colors as well - or at least yellow - as other players have.
That would be better in the global settings.
