  • Right align text box + corresponding shape layer

    Posted by Kjetil Svendsen on October 20, 2017 at 4:46 pm

    Hi! Is there a way to fetch the Align parameters from the Align panel and use it in an expression?
    I would like to right align a text box (not just text) and a corresponding black shape layer.

    Unfortunately not. The usual method is to make two layers and set Opacity expressions. Or you could keep each line on separate layers (using split expression if you want only one text field in the mogrt) and position each layer (and the shape layer) relative to the width with expressions.
