Source text input from other comp but take notice of superscript
I am making an animation which has to be localized afterwards in many languages. So I have a seperate comp in which I can easily and quickly translate all texts which link to the text layers in all other comps.
The text layers in those other comps have the following expression :
comp("CHANGE_TEXT").layer("text1").text.sourceTextIn the CHANGE_TEXT comp I now have a text that contains superscript “Trespa PURANFC® FLUSH Siding”
But in the the expression doesnt take notice of that script. Futhermore that text is made in all capitals in bold. So it says “TRESPA PURANFC® FLUSH SIDING”
Can i add something to the expression so that it takes notice of the superscript?

Unfortunately, there’s no way to access per-character formatting attributes with an expression.

Thanks Dan, so this article : https://www.reddit.com/r/AfterEffects/comments/50kyok/regarding_recent_changes_to_source_text/ is something different than what I was thinking about?

Yes.

Sorry, I was headed out the door. Scripting has access to those things, but not expressions (except for sourceRectAtTime(), which both scripting and expressions have now).
