  • Fringe on white on white text

    Posted by David Faletti on June 27, 2019 at 3:10 am

    Howdy,
    Just animating a shape layer to reveal white text as shown in the image but the text is showing a visible fringe. I can not find any info on this and I am guessing i will have to animate a mask / track matte to fix it otherwise. There are no effects except an Animator to track out the text but deleting it makes no difference.
    Any ideas
    Cheers
    Dave

    Are you sure the text doesn’t have a very thin stroke applied in the Character panel?

    Walter, thank you. You made me look at the Character palette again. The stroke colour was set to black but the stroke width set to zero which is why I dismissed it as the problem. However it seems that setting the stroke colour to ‘No Stroke Colour’ fixes the problem. Why a zero stroke width shows up is weird but problem solved.
