Looking for recommendations/suggestions for brining in paragraphs of text, one
word at a time, without having to break down paragraphs into an object for each
word. Words to either fade in, or appear in place, followed by next, followed
by next, until paragraph is complete.
Open to any tips or extensions or other effects that others have used and are
fond of.
thanks! |

Hi Nigel, I have a number of extensions/collections (commercial) which
could help you out, both Actionscript 2.0 and 3.0, see
LINK
Word-by-word is possible with manual script change, but you can also
speed up whole text by using dot-something values for 'delay between
letters' like 0.3
Regards

A brief look at your website, and it looks like there are 1165 text effects
across all of the packages. Could you self-promote a little more and make a
specific suggestion of a few to look at?

Hi Nigel,
Ha, yes usually I leave out the link and simply put name of collections
and let people google the rest. But couldn't pass up an open invitation
to 'self-promote' ;)
It depends a bit on what you are looking for. The 1000+ effects can be
divided in main text effects and sub effects... best to check out the
online "Demos" and then collapse the menu list(s) so you see the
main-effects-only.
Most people choose Power Pack (PJ+S4), they contain a mix of letter-only
and support-animation type text effects. They contain clean and simpler
effects. +Astro (/Super Pack) is also popular since it contains more
advanced animation effects but also a variety of letter-only effects.
In the end, it depends a bit on what 'style' you're looking for. Almost
any effect will look pretty slick if you use it with high frame rates
and short animation durations. And there's a lot to choose from so best
to browse around a bit ...
Regards
