Dissapearing character limit

[William Drescher]

So. here the premise. Making a template. Want to have a grid of dots “.” which I can animate, scale, tracking, line space and whatever else I can do with textacy. So Dots have to be in a textbox on one line.

So I start to make the grid and suddenly the dots disappear if I scale or kern. It’s not really a “limit” if dots, but a combination of these on a single line. In either case, I can’t make my grid of single line, but ok if line breaks which will not work.

Any suggestions?

Sorry, I’m struggling to follow this. Can you post some sketches/screenshots it might help to spot what you’re trying to do and what the problem is.
