Multiple fontstyles in 1 textlayer via expressions, finally

[Multipasser]

For now I only need the client to type 1 line which has Light and Bold.

So I just made a simple setup with a slider control that selects a range for the light/bold style.

Does not work well with typo’s that have big width differences between the characters.

A typefont that is close to monospace font should work just fine.

Good solution, it’s often not necessary to do stuff in 1 layer, I just like to explore it as a challenge. Still plan to fix the spacing issue (which you see too) when I find the time.
