Example AE project file #1
Description
Hey! This is a neat library. I'm curious how you use this in your After Effects templates. I see in the description you mention:
This can then be used in Ae to style and position a bunch of text layers.
Seems like this is clever work around for the limitation you mention in your article:
There's no
setStyleAt()- it's not possible to set different styles for different portions of the text. The returned style object is used for all characters.
It would be sweet to see how you wire this up!
Edit: Ah, looks like we'll get per-character text styling in expressions soon—currently in beta!
Update: I had a chance to update this lib for use with the 24.5.0x41 beta, see #2!
