    Expression: Replace a word & font style(Replace command) (setFont command)

    Posted by Gerald mark Soto on December 16, 2020 at 3:56 am

    Currently this works perfectly:

    text.sourceText.replace(/are/,”no”)

    but I want to change the weight of the word “no” to a different font weight via style.setFont:

    text.sourceText.replace(/are/,style.setFont(“Gotham-Black”).setText(“no”))

    I’m not sure what Im doing wrong but I get this where “no” should be: [object Object]

    Please help. Thanks

    You can only change the style of the entire text layer as far as I know.
