  MoText somehow driving me beserk.

  Posted by Simon Roughan on January 31, 2012 at 10:53 am

  I have a motext object. 2 lines of text. I want it to appear letter by letter. i have a step effector and uniform scale to -1. it is attached to “letters” in the effects bovx in the motext object. I have a box shape in the falloff in the effector, and i want to move it from left to right to make the letters appear in the right order. But it seems to only want to drive me crazy. The bottom line always appears first.
  Can someone please explain to me how I can set this up properly?
  Thanks in advance
  Simon

  Until someone else chimes in, you could always use two different effectors.
