Expression to scale text based on character
Hey All, I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to scale certain characters if they appear in a text element. For example, every time the percentage character appears, it automatically scales to 50%.

You could try adding a Scale Animator to your text, set the Scale value to 50%, add an Expression Selector (and go ahead and remove the Range Selector), andset the Expression Selector’s Amount expression to this:
txt = text.sourceText.value.replace(/\r/g,'');
txt[textIndex-1] == "%" ? 100 : 0 -
what mean this?
(/\r/g,”)

That means to remove any carriage returns from the text. Otherwise textIndex will get messed up if your text has multiple lines.
