Hi Gleb, thanks for the response. This is closer to what I’m trying to achieve.
When doing animations, having different starting locations like this results in different animation behaviors. I’d like a plugin or a native way to set a Y axis or X axis increment value like 16 in the example instead of having to do everything manually for each letter.
I guess this can be solved if each letter was the same height. You can wrap each letter in a frame, set all frames to the same size (e.g. 16 px) then use tidy up.
@Art_Garcia OK, I’ve been thinking about this one for a bit and had an idea of how one could have auto-layout applied to each letter and change the top-padding of each letter manually or adjust it through variables. This may be a little more complicated than you wanted, but hopefully give you some other options.
woah, first off — amazing showcase, thank you for investing time into this challenge.
This is very interesting, I think my only concern here would be how would I be able to preserve the original kerning (may not be possible) but better to be concerned about kerning accuracy than the time i would be saving by doing this process.
I wish there was a plugin to achieve this process but overall I am super excited about trying this out.
Some Notable changes:
Instead of four characters, I’ve added 27, and allowed for a character to be empty. This is hard so far… what if i want to animate a word like “animate” versus “fast” this becomes very difficult.
