  • Outlining box “attached” to amount of text?

    Posted by Jeff Asher on July 1, 2010 at 10:56 pm

    I’m trying to create a template in Motion that will allow me to write text inside the template in Final Cut but have a box that automatically resizes around the text created.

    It would kind of be how Viewfinder filter works with text in Final Cut, but I need my own template.

    Any thoughts on how to achieve this with behaviors?

    Thanks!

    Mark! You are the man! (Although I realize you are just the messenger 😛 )

    What’s funny is I subscribe to MacBreak’s podcasts but I hadn’t watched that one yet. That’s what I get for skipping a “template” episode 😀

    Thanks again!
