I will explain, let’s say I have a red rectangle

This rectangle is the allowed margin for the text, any partial text out of this rectangle looks bad.

Now, this looks ok:

If I use this expression:

s = 12/text.sourceText.length*100; [s,s]

When I have less than 5 characters the size is HUGE and out of margin, it must be centered in the rectangle even if only 1, 2, 3 or 5 characters too.

I want it to look like this:

Nop, that’s the same but using only a 10% scale with 20 chars.

What I need is specify a scale for each character value.

If 20 characters written then 100% scale
If 18 characters written then 95% scale
If 16 characters wtitten then 90% scale

etc…

Ok, now I understand a bit how it works, but I’m trying to so something that I don’t know if possible and I can’t find any list of “commands” or something.

Can I assign different values to scale depending on the amount of characters?

I mean, something like

if text.characters = 10 then
[100,100]

if text.characters = 11 then
[90,90]

if text.characters = 12 then
[80,80]

if text.characters = 13 then
[70,70]

if text.characters = 14 then
[60,60]

if text.characters = 15 then
[50,50]

Is this possible with expressions?

Amazing! Thanks!

Where are you reading about expressions !? I can’t find any good guide or doc.

Thank you so much, but it scales only the width, not the height.

Any ideas how to fix that?

Sorry, I’ve fixed it.

The issue was.. the math is 480 x 16⁄9 = 853.333…

So I’ve used 853×480, it seems like the correct resolution to encode in h264 encoder is 854×480, now worked like a charm.

Thanks for your help

I don’t know sorenson3, but if you are trying to encode in h264 make sure you are using the addecuated bitrate, you can make the video the size you want with h264, try with Ripbot, set it to 2pass, and lock size to the size you need.

Gracias Jose, nice website.

I still need AE templates, only texts, I don’t need any image slides or anything.

Until now, MotionVFX is one of the only ones who sells with the license I need to sell rendered videos repeated times to different customers.

Something else? I need like 100 templates or more.

ok, now I found https://www.motionvfx.com , there are a few nice templates I can use from there with my purposes 😀

Any other suggestion? I need something like 50 templates or more.
