Text Animator: Alternate Position

[Filip Vandueren]

hey Darren, your image didn’t upload.

Is this what you meant:

Thanks for your reply Filip, here is my original image

Also here is where I got to with yours, only half the words fade in:

Yes, you can’t combine it with opacity. Because impacting position by -100% means opposing the coordinates, while doing the same with an opacity of 0, would mean opacity =200.

So the opacity needs a separate animator

[Darren Lee]

ok thanks, I can create a new animator for opacity

Would you know how I could alternate from top-right-bottom-left ?

[Filip Vandueren]

Yes, the result can be up to 3 dimensional, to influence x/y/z or r/g/b properties differently.

Like this:

i=textIndex%4;
switch (i) {
	case 0:
		[-100,0,0];
		break;
	case 1:
		[0,-100,0];
		break;
	case 2:
		[100,0,0];
		break;
	default:
		[0,100,0];
}

thanks, but I was looking to use 2D layers but in 4 different directions, like this:

I managed this using this code. Then added a opacity animator. Thanks very much!

i=textIndex%4;
switch (i) {
	case 0:
		[-100,0];
		break;
	case 1:
		[0,-100];
		break;
	case 2:
		[100,0];
		break;
	default:
		[0,100];
}
