Activity Forums Adobe After Effects Expressions Constraining text

  • Posted by Tim Stonesifer on October 29, 2008 at 10:02 pm

    I’m working on a project where I need a short line of text to fit into a specific region of my comp. I want to have an expression so that it will automatically either scale or insert line break, depending on where it’s best appropriate.

    I had used a paragraph box, and that constrained the position perfectly. However, in text that had a combination of short and long words, sometimes the short words would have their own line. If the text width was just scaled down, that would fix this, but I couldn’t figure out a way to do this automatically.

    I’m open to any suggestions people have.
