sourceRectAtTime difficulties

[Michael2130123]

"Shape Layer 1" must match the size of the text block "Text". But it turns out something strange. I've been watching tutorials for two days and I don't understand what's going on. Help please.

Having the text, the shape layer, or the rectangle scaled could cause that.

Without any scale changes, it turns out that

Can you post the project (or a simplified version that demonstrates the problem)?

[Dan Ebberts · Accepted solution]

If you look in Transform : Rectangle 1, you'll see that you have scale set to 27.0, 16.8. Change that to 100, 100 and it should work (although margins of 50 will probably look extreme with text that small).

Thank you so much for helping a clueless guy. What would I do without you
