Need different Rect Boundary visual indicator to differentiate between Point & Paragraph Text Layers

[Roland Kahlenberg]

Need different Rect Boundary visual indicator to differentiate between Point & Paragraph Text Layers.

As more AE users dive deep into Text Layer Scripting & Expressions, it'll be good to be able to select a Text Layer and immediately be able to tell if it's a Point/Paragraph Text Layer. 

My suggestion is to keep Solid Tiny Square for Point Text and Tiny Outlined Square for Paragraph Text. This has the added benefit of being a visual indicator since the Paragraph Text's visible Rect Boundary, when selected, isn't representative of its actual (extents) Rect Boundary which only becomes visible when a Paragraph Layer's content (Text Edit Area) becomes active.

I'm calling it a Design Bug because I'm desperate to see this worked out.  😄

In the 1960s, the current construct would have been OK but with current workings, this is a pain that hits users many, many times each day.

Roland, I think that is a great idea. You have my upvote.
