Any chance to change the Text Format of individual characters?

 

Hi there.

Is there a way to gain access to the format of individual characters in a string?
For example give a different color or font attribute to each character?

In theory this should be possible with an array, but we would need an Array Text Concat for that, right?

Cheers & all the best.

Eric.

And again answering (at least partially) my own question.

Using the ForumSearch I found this example:
https://my.aximmetry.com/post/42-animation-per-words-characters
which is a great starting point.

Cheers.

Eric.

Hi Eric,

You can actually find that example in the Tutorials and Samples library at: [Tutorials]:Lower Thirds\LowerThird_TextAnim.xcomp

Also, if you want to do a gradient color over the text, then you should apply a gradient color image after the Text Image module. Before the image goes into a shader. You could use the Curve Gradient module to create gradient colors.

Warmest regards,
