  Dynamic text boxes

  Posted by Daniel Spangler on November 30, 2012 at 7:59 pm

  Hey there –
  I’m trying to mimic the following effect, where a text box expands dynamically with typed text.

  I was wondering if anyone could give me a basic idea of how you’d go about this. It seems like it’d be pretty complex, as the mask shape would somehow have to dynamically expand relative to the last revealed character. Am I missing something obvious?

  Any advice would be helpful.
