I agree on all accounts, unfortunately still not an option for me. I deleted the most complicated text sequence (by complicated I mean 12 lines of text in an empty sequence) and am restarting from scratch while keeping the other more simpler sequences with 1-2 lines of text.

Not sure if this is a mac bug or an adobe one, or if really animating a couple lines of text has the power to crash the entire program. I wouldn’t be too surprised if it did.

Thanks!

That expression is really helpful, thank you. I’ll probably use a combination of both depending on what animation needs to take place.

Thanks again.

Hey thank you for taking the time to respond to my posts.

This is the expression I’m applying to the stroke width:
s = transform.scale[0];
scaleFactor = 100/s;
value*scaleFactor;

I think what I’m starting to understand is that I need to make all these shapes on one shape layer for this particular animation, and just scale everything individually.

Sorry it took me that long to come to that realization, it’s just a workflow adjustment.

Hey thanks,

I can get a stroke to remain constant, the problem is when I have many of these solids and i’m making a parent for them to follow.

Okay that’s interesting. Thanks for your help!

Huh. Okay thanks guys for helping me out!

I did both to see what would work. Aligning the anchor points of the individual shape layer helped them scale in the same direction, I was just confused why I would have to do this in the first place? Shouldn’t a child automatically scale toward the parent’s anchor point?

I tried to pick whip the scale properties, which works great! But it looks like the anchor points of the shapes have to match in order for them to scale in the same direction? Is there a reason for that?

Wow I had no idea it’d be that easy. Thank you so much!!

Apparently all I had to do was uncheck ‘High Quality’ under the object properties of the boolean.
