  Text changes to the text of the next text line

  Posted by Daniel Schmidt on November 30, 2021 at 1:13 pm

  Hello,

  I want a text layer to change its text every frame, showing the text from the next text line, then the next line etc…

  The text layer contains a few hundred text lines. So basically:

  Text Layer shows at frame 1: Text from Line 1

  Text Layer shows at frame 2: Text from Line 2

  and so on….

   

  Thanks a lot for any help 🙂

  Something like this maybe:

  txt = value.split("\r");
  f = timeToFrames(time);
  idx = Math.min(f,txt.length-1);
  txt[idx]
