Question

テキストを常に左揃え・中央配置にしたい

テロップ作業でテキストを文字数が変わっても追加の動作なしで自動的に中央配置(整列と変形)、左揃えで統一したいです。

 

【現状】

テキストを中央揃えで中央配置👉文字数が変わってもテキストが左右にズレて行くので調整の必要なし

 

テキストを中央配置で中央揃えから左揃えにすると👉アンカーポイントを基準に右へずれて左揃えになるので、中央配置でなくなる。

 

ショートカットキーを試してみた場合👉複数選択で左揃えにはできるが、中央配置にするにはグリップごとに、しかもバウンディングボックスが表示されている状態で中央配置のショートカットキーを押す必要があり、一括で中央配置にできない

 

【実現したい事】

ショートカットキーや、何かしらの設定などによって、クリップごとに左揃え・中央配置にしなくても、常に、または一括で左揃え中央配置にしたい

 

なにかそういった方法を知っているかたおられますか?


【余談】

テレビは左揃え中央配置であることが多いですが、あれはどうやっているんでしょうかね?

    1. Select all your center-positioned graphic clips in the timeline.
    2. In the Properties panel, click the Text Properties (wrench) icon.
    3. Change the Text Layer Type from Point Text to Paragraph Text.
    4. Click the Left Align Text icon.

     

    Note: The text will now be left-aligned while staying centered as a block. You may see a small shift to the left.

    @まえちゃん,

    Are these captions? Are they embedded, burned in, or sidecar?

    The center aligned here is usually the position of the text box on the screen, which is centered. The width of that box may vary (so the left edge changes), but the center of the box is the center of the screen. For example, with captions in the properties panel, in the align and transform section, click the bottom middle zone; the caption block is center bottom.

    The left-aligned is the paragraph alignment within the box. For example, with captions in the properties panel, in the Text section, click on Left align text icon.

    It may be confusing because clicking on the bottom middle zone automatically changes the paragraph alignment to centered. So select the bottom middle zone, then set the paragraph to left align.

    I any event, you can create a text style to apply this to all captions. The process is a bit different for non-caption track text.

    If it is not behaving properly, post back.

    Can Automation Blocks do that?

    It depends a bit on what type of text you are using.

    If these are regular text/graphic clips created directly in Premiere Pro, Automation Blocks can change their position, but as far as I know Premiere's scripting APIs don't provide a reliable way to determine the actual rendered width of the text. Without knowing that width, an automation cannot calculate the offset required to keep left-aligned text centered as its content changes.

    If you are using a Ae based Motion Graphics Template, however, I would solve this inside the template itself. In After Effects you can make the positioning depend on the actual text bounds, so the text stays left-aligned while the complete text block remains centered automatically, regardless of its length.

    For example, this can be done with expressions using the text bounds (sourceRectAtTime()), or with the Anchor Point tools in my Pins & Boxes extension.
