Question

I’m trying to create a lower third template with two text ayers the lower text layer follows the other text layer vertically and horizontally. I used the expression from this thread.
It works but with some extended characters  the text layer

s are no more aligned correctly to the left.
Though the last comment in the thread above mentioned it I found no solution to this.
Thank you for your help.

The T in the layer below shifts the text box to the left

    Hi there,


    Thanks for reaching out. I am not an expert with the expression but as a workaround, you can change the anchor point of the layer and align it properly with the help of guides.

    Hope it helps.


    Thanks,

    Nishu

    Thank you Nishu,
    I tried to set the anchor points offset but there must be an expression to align the anchorpoints so the layers don’t shift when they are left aligned.
    Thank you for your help!
