Hi Filip, this works very well. Thank you so much!

Hi Tomas, thank you for your quick reply.
I want to use this with the ability to edit the content and control highlighted words in the essential graphics panel, for instance.
The number of words can vary depending on the content but with a fixed number of lines(rows) – let’s say three. I could use a single text as a paragraph and that would be more convenient. But I can’t really figure out how to animate each line individually. I also thought of looking up the name of the word instead of index. But, for example, if “the” appears in the text several times in the text, then it is highlighted each time it appears. A more advanced method is beyond me.

Actually, I solved it. For the position property in range selector animation I used:
var boxWidth = thisLayer.sourceRectAtTime(time).width;
[-boxWidth,0]
and no need to link the Anchor Point to the position property of the characters in Range Selector Animator.
The only thing I found there is a small offset position of characters like A, V.. vs. B, L, P …. but that’s another story. Anyway, thank you!

You gave me an idea using condition. Also I found something and tried to adapt to my case. Not sure if the developers have different thought but it works fine for me.
Thank you!

tDur = 0;
i = 0;
while (time >= tDur){
i +=1;
if (i%2){
tDur+=1; //ringing for one second
p = [transform.position[0], transform.position[1]-20];
p+ random([8,8]);
}else{
tDur+=2;//hold for two seconds
value;
}
}
