Expressions: Move two text lines
Miki Colomer
February 28, 2020 at 8:02 pmHi!
I’m fairly new to expressions and I’m not exactly sure how to proceed with this.
I want to create a lower third template with essential graphics.
I have two lines, and I want to move the position of the second line according the amount of text of the first line.
You can view and example for understanding better.
Any help is much appreciated ☺ and sorry for my English 🙁

//Mikaelvalue+[thisComp.layer("Text layer 1").sourceRectAtTime(time).width, 0];
