  • Set source text expression to copy the formatting of a text layer

    Posted by Dario De angelis on September 22, 2016 at 1:45 pm

    Hi guys, I’ve run into a big problem in one of my work.

    I have many texts layers (like: “Font1 Font2“) that I would control by a composition with source text layers (that I’ll control with Adobe Premiere), but if I apply the thisComp.layer("TEXT").text.sourceText
    expression it change the formatting of the text based only on the first font.

    Is there any chance to copy the entire formatting for my text?
    I’ve read in this forum that maybe is possible with an “Character Offset” hack but I havent found more.

    Can you help me?
