Could you please tell me how to reverse the direction of "Slow Fade On".

I'd like the text to Fade On from the right side instead of its default left side.

Image attached, thanks!

I believe that the post is quite old, still wanted to give my input for the new users:

The default settings for the Animation Presets e.g. Typewriter is from left to right.

In order to change the appearance from right to left as in Arabic, Urdu or other languages.

You simply need to change settings of the Animator->Range selector

Set Start to 0

Define keyframes for the 'End' from 100 down to zero as in percentage.

Leave offset to 0.

It worked for me, hope it will work for everyone else as well.

Cheers,

Umer

    Do this:

    Set the first offset keyframe to: 100%

    Set the second offset keyframe to : -100%

    Change the Advanced > Shape menu to: Ramp down.
