Why does the text animator not work right when set to ramp up?
After effects has had this problem since as long as I can remember. You set the animation to ramp up and what happens…it only gets through about 70% of your text…Making us use the offset to finish it up the rest of the way. Im not a coder, but is this a hard thing to fix?

This is how Ramp Up/Down work as well as Triangle, Round and Smooth. The purpose of these Shape Types is to provide a more organic manner in how characters are affected by the Range Selectors. There is nothing to fix. This feature has been designed to behave exactly as it does.
You need to understand that the Square Shape Type only allows for a linear selection of the Text Characters, via the Range Selector (and its properties). The other Shape Types provide alternative methods to select your text. Just remember that you need to use Offset when using a Shape Type that is not Square and you will have fewer/no issues.
