Effects on text box with multiple lines of text.

I have a bullet list in a single text box. I am trying to apply opacity effect on each bullet list at a variable time. However, the effect applies to the whole text box.

Is there a way to apply effects to only one line of text in the whole text box?

If I separate the bullet list into multiple text boxes, the alignment and spacing process is tedious. Is there a work around?

You can put multiple masks on a text layer, and keyframe the opacity of each mask separately.

if you are on premiere pro cc 2019 you can use the rulers and enable snap graphics on the monitor,

this way you can create separate text boxes and perfectly align them

This solution is sounding good, I will try this!

Maybe try a keyframed Opacity Mask applied to an Adjustment Layer.
