This is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you very much.

Thanks. I was going to post my example using that technique. I was hoping there was a way of doing it without splitting my text.

I found another way of doing it by creating two animators and animating the Start, End, Offset, Ease In and Ease out functions but had little success. (It also got pretty confusing)

Maybe I can make a strong enough argument to get a “animate from center out” function added to CS5.5

Thanks, Art.

They all seem to animate from left to right or right to left. I have scoured them for variation with no luck. I even downloaded the CS3 bonus pack of text animation presets. https://www.adobe.com/go/learn_ae_cs3additionalanimationpresets

I have put about 5 hours into it. There has to be an elegant way of animating from center out.
