Text Size respond to minumum/maximum width
Hi Guys,
I try to do something tricky.
I’am making a text preset which I want the Source text to be the master of the others linking to the Source text. (there are 2 other text linking to them)Now it only respond what text is in the source text but not the font size.
Also I want the text to be a minimum and maximum size. No mather how long the sentence is.
So for example 800px (width) at all time.Hope you can help me out.

Did you solve your text size problem?
While you can’t directly access the font size from an expression (as far as I know), if you add a scale animator (from the pop-up menu on the text layer, choose Animate > Scale) you can then add an expression in there. You can get the length (in characters) of the text using:
thisComp.layer(“replace this with your text layer name”).text.sourceText.length
You’ll need to do a fair amount of maths to adapt the scale to the correct value, but I hope this brief response might help as a starting point!
