Hi
I would like the text to be scaled up and the leading correct on each line. (see photos)
I am using a ukramedia script, but this only applies to a text box and not a text line.
I don't have much experience with after effects, which is why I also use this script in the first place.
I want to make this a template for premiere, so that it has to be dynamic.
This is the smart sizer script:
try {
sizeOptions = effect("Smart Sizer 1.0")("Size Options").value;
customTime = sourceTime(effect("Smart Sizer 1.0")("Custom Time").value);
layerSizeAt = effect("Smart Sizer 1.0")("Layer Size at").value;
customTimeSource = effect("Smart Sizer 1.0")("Custom Time Source").value;
switch(layerSizeAt) {
case 1:
finalSize = sourceTime(time);
break;
case 2:
finalSize = inPoint;
break;
case 3:
finalSize = inPoint + outPoint/2;
break;
case 4:
finalSize = outPoint;
break;
case 5:
if (customTimeSource == 1) {
finalSize = sourceTime(customTime);
} else {
finalSize = customTime;
}
break;
default:
finalSize = sourceTime(time);
break;
}
sizeAtTime = sourceRectAtTime(finalSize, true);
xMargin = effect("Smart Sizer 1.0")("X Margin (px)").value * 2;
yMargin = effect("Smart Sizer 1.0")("Y Margin (px)").value * 2;
xSize = effect("Smart Sizer 1.0")("Width (px)").value - xMargin;
ySize = effect("Smart Sizer 1.0")("Height (px)").value - yMargin;
x = xSize / sizeAtTime.width * 100;
y = ySize / sizeAtTime.height * 100;
fitToWidth = Math.min(x, y);
fitToHeight = Math.max(x, y);
switch(sizeOptions) {
case 1:
[x, x];
break;
case 2:
[y, y];
break;
case 3:
[fitToWidth, fitToWidth];
break;
case 4:
[fitToHeight, fitToHeight];
break;
case 5:
[x, y];
break;
default:
[x, y];
break;
}
}
catch (err) {
value;
}
Thanks in advance!

You can't use paragraph text in that way. If you realyl want to match different lines of text, the have to be separate. There's only so much expressions can do. Other than that you can always rig it up with scale text animators set to per line mode. Easy enough to do and eliminates using any expressions from the equation.

Is there a more detailed explanation? I do not understand how this script works or where I have to put it.
