Activity Forums Adobe After Effects Expressions Dynamic scale/pos

    Hi, I’m looking for an expression that can give me this (gif example attached. quickly Keyframed) Scale flexibility where the layers inside scale and move together so they always fit the box size. Eventually the scale could be controlled by animating a slider to get a dynamic movement. Any idea how this could be done?

    I believe this can be animated using keyframes and you will need to scale it from large to small or vice versa as you implement more keyframes in the animation. And yeah as long as you have the scaled text inside the box as shown in the pic, it should not get out of it. if it does, it simply cuts off so you will have to set the limits within the box for a fluid animation. Hope it helps and let me know if you have other questions! 🙂

    Keyframes are hard to controle in this animation. Smooth animation out and go back for example. So it would make everything more easy if the scale or delay is controlled by a slider/falloff. but the alignment stays the same as also the height of the box.

    That is rather odd, is there a video clip you can show me that its still having this issue. Curious to see whats going on on your end.
