Palf MotionTextBox
A text box that resizes itself as the source text changes.
A text box that resizes itself as the source text changes.
A script that creates a text box whose size changes in response to a text layer’s source text.
Properties
- Color — the text box colour
- In / Out — applied to the entrance / exit
- Fixed Width / Fixed Height — lock the width / height
- Width / Height — the amount added to the size; when Fixed is on, the size itself
- Start Point — the motion starts this many frames before the source-text keyframe
- End Point — the motion ends this many frames after the source-text keyframe
- Ease — easing applied between Start Point and End Point against keyframes running 0 to 1 (any count or duration). Without keyframes the motion is linear
- Offset Pos — fine positional adjustment
Notes
- Removing the parenting causes an expression error, because the script reads the parent layer’s dimensions.
- Outside In / Out, setting Start Point and End Point so that motions overlap makes the movement jump.
Changelog
- Changed the .ffx save location, which had defaulted to the desktop
- Initial release
