July 13, 2020 at 8:53 amIf you only want the coloured words to also be Bold, add extra properties to the existing selector.
But I’m assuming you want some words to be a colour, and possibly others in faux bold, faux italic…
In this case you would need multiple external text-layers.
(“Coloured Words”, “Bold Words”, “Italic Words”)Then three separate animators with each their own expression selector.
The only thing that needs to change in the expression is the name of the text-layer where the list of word-indexes is stored for that property.

July 13, 2020 at 1:50 pmThanks Filip. I saw your response on this string about using stroke as a faux-bold solution, which works just fine for me. This one is for my wife, so I think it’s reasonable to say I can ask her to type the words she wants to be highlighted using the shift key :).
