Text Generator Question

Post by cjb028 »

I am trying to use text generator to display animated lyrics, I have a clip for each word.

I have automation (timeline) on the spacing x parameter so that when the clip is triggered the characters of the word slowly spread horizontally. The problem I am having is whenever i trigger the clip, for a split second you can see the characters move back together very quickly (to the beginning of the timeline). If I go manually move the spacing x timeline to the beginning it works fine, but the lyrics are repeated through out the song.

Any suggestions to a work-around or fix to this? Is there a way to have the clip reset to the beginning after it is triggered?

Indeed, I'll create a ticket. (#11951)
I don't have any workarounds for this yet unfortunately.

You can animate clip opacity, so your clip will be invisible at start.

Something like that.
