Went looking for this in 2025 and find 2018 me answering my own question. Thank you, young me.

[Matthew Ingram]

That works like a dream. Thank you so much, Dan. I am so grateful.

[Matthew Ingram]

OK, I’ve achieved this by splitting the lines in the CSV document. Would still be curious! Thank you again.

[Matthew Ingram]

Thank you very much, Yoan. But this doesn’t quite do what I need to.

To explain myself better – in Illustrator (see attached images) when you create text within a box it automatically splits the lines.

Is there any way of doing that?

[Matthew Ingram]

I imported a CSV file into the comp with the text stacked in multiple rows in one column. Then created a bunch of text layers pointing each source text to the top layer – it returned a value like this footage(“text.csv”).dataValue([0,0]). That looks like it will work fine for me. Then I can swap out the text layer.

Hi Dan,

I was wondering if this will still work in 2024? Trying and failing right now 🙁

[Matthew Ingram]

The trick is to use the polgon reduction tool.

Hi Michael, Thank you for getting back to me. The thing about the Triangulate Mesh Tool is that it only subdivides the Quads in two – it doesn’t create a homogenous triangular mesh.

[Matthew Ingram]

thank you yes. at 1000% right now so cranked up pretty high. anyway thanks for getting back to me.
