Text Block Features

Post by Bang Boom Ben »

Hey guys,
i like the new Text Block and Text Animation Source.
As a Graphic Designer I must say it's still very limited and I still need to use PNGs to display text. Here is a list of some basic features within the tool that would make it a bomb:

- List Fonts that are activated by Font-Library-Tools like "Suitcase Fusion" (on Win10 it only uses Fonts that are in the system folder, don't know how it is on MAC)
- Spacing Y till minus 100% / or better make it by input pixels.
- Different Font Styles and Sizes inbetween one Text Block
- Alignment also Y for Up, Center and Bottom

Thanks.

About spacing Y, I was asking myself the same, why not more negative values?
Solve it decreasing the font size to get the right leading, and then scale it.
Isn't the usual way to adjust leading, but works. :)

Please more Features for Text Block. Text Block are really limited and work from version to version even more bad.

From my perspective add W/H and text size adjust depending of how much text is in the Text Block.

2 layers with one layer with a smaller scale and blackout/mask, Auto mask might work too, probably get better results fine tuning it in Wire.

It would be nice to have stroke options within the text blocks and optical spacing like in photoshop would be awesome too
