Please bring all OpenType features to After Effects

Typography is an important part of many animations. With the great amount of options designers have with OpenType-Fonts every aspect of a font should be accessible in a modern animation software.

Please add all OpenType-Options as seen in the Photoshop Character Panel to be natively accessible in After Effects.

With fonts becoming more versatile these days this is a must!
Recently I had a client that used a font that used glyphs and I had to save each letter in a different program first then bring it over to AE.

Good Lord. Essential feature in "already suggested several years ago and completely ignored by Adobe" shocker!

The idea that parity of type functionality between CC apps needs to be *requested* just boggles my mind.

Adobe is still a design company, right?

Yes please. Currently having to bring them in with Overlord, then I need to go back in and copy and paste over all of each layer (word) work to get the right look.

Tedious!

It's 2021. I'll set a Siri reminder to come back and visit this topic in another 5 years.
