    I realize this might be a simple question, but I am having a hard time figuring it out. I am trying to make an animated logo where the text drops in to the center of the screen from about 800% down to 100%. The text animation pre-set called “Zoom Forward” in the “Scale” category does almost exactly what I am trying to achieve, except it animates in the wrong direction; the last letter drops in first, and the animation continues from right to left. I am not very experienced with the animator selectors and cannot figure out how to reverse this. Is there a simple solution that I am missing? I want the first character of the word to drop in first, followed by the rest of the range. Any help is greatly appreciated!!

    try setting the ‘shape’ of the movement for zoom forward (animator>>range selector>advanced>shape). try setting ramp down to ramp up… is that what you are looking for?
