Essential Graphics : custom font style (italic or regular or bold) within a paragraph (

[diaspotatal]

Hello all,

I'm working on a project between After Effects & Premiere Pro. I want to create multiples text animation coming from the left & the right side. The animation is working well and my text is formatted well as well. BUT for this purpose, I will need to have the possibilty to edit the text. For this, i'm drag n dropping the source text for the text layer into my Essential Graphics panel, it's working well, I can even add properties such as Enable Custom Font Selection, Enable Font Size Adjustement & Enable Faux Styles. The thing is that within that paragraph, I don't want all my text to be regular or italic or bold if I use the Faux style, I want part of the paragraph to be regular and the last sentence to be italic, Did any of you succeed to do this?

On the following images is an example of what I want to achieve but within Premiere Pro and without having to going back and forth between the two apps ..

If you have any questions, don"t hesitate to shoot!

Thanks a lot in advance

I, too, am needing to know how to do this.

There is currently no substring formatting available for AE mogrts.

This is a feature that has been requested before, so we are aware of our users' needs for such a feature and we thank you for your feedback.

I have been checking in for this feature for ages now and am also curious if this is coming anytime soon?

Programmatic multi-style Text Layers made it into AE late last year IIRC. This means you can write Expressions that programmatically control your text/font styles within a single text layer. 

Take note it's not an easy task - this sample MoGRT I test took about 5 hours to set and had over 300 lines of code. My latest version has about 650 lines of Expression Code and is more sophisticated. Then again, it was designed to be a MoGRT-based Text Tool. 

If you're only requiring a basic setup then things get a lot easier - it all depends on what you want to achieve in terms of the design/layout and animation.
