Thanks for the tip but unfortunately that didn’t work, all objects disappear when applied under the connect object.

I have found this article:

Does anyone think that this idea could be applied to what I am looking to do?

Thanks in advanced!

Hi Kalle,

Thanks for your reply, but unfortunately that does not work in replicating the reference video text above.

This method creates 2 strokes around a text character and not an individual line through a text character, as what would be required for the effect we are looking for.

Thanks though! 🙂

Hi Juliette, thank you for the reply.

This method is exactly what I have been using, this process is ridiculously long winded!

This is the process I have been following:
Step 1 – Create Text
Step 2 – Create New Shape Layer
Step 3 – Create outlines of Text with line shapes on the indicidual paths in the shape layer
Step 4 – Alpha matte text layer with the shape layer
Step 5 – Animate Trip Paths

Process time:
average 20-30 minutes for 3/4 words.

If only there was a way to convert text to shape layers then invert the shapes/remove outlines and keep some sort of skeleton/center line of the letter/number, then applying continuing from step 4 above – that would solve this long winded process I believe…

Anyone have a way around this?

Hi Dave,

Thank you for the quick response, I am talking about the text that comes in every now and then, orange first and white over it.

FIX! Took me 3 whole days to figure out the issue, well, not really figure out the root issue, but it does seem like a temporary fix.

Instructions:
Pre-Comp the text layer/layers and use the composition as the Color and Alpha layer, even if you are using multiple text layers.
– That’s it!

Surprised no one has solved this yet, maybe this could be seen by the developers and create a fix?
