Text + node word wrap and font scaling
Posted: Thu Oct 13, 2016 9:03 am
I am a total newbie to Fusion - currently using Natron in my workflow but wanted to see what Fusion had to offer!
I am loving the flexibility within the text + node but am wondering if there is a way to have word wrap and dynamic font size for the text node?
What I want to do is dynamically inject text into my video...but I don't know the length of the text before hand!
My current workaround in Natron (as their text node also doesn't have this functionality) is to use Imagemagick.
The advantage of Imagemagick is that I can set the size of the text frame and the text fills to fit the frame size, either by increasing the font size if there isn't a lot of text, or decreasing it if there is a lot!
Ideally I would like to keep everything within Fusion to give me more control over effects I can apply to text
Any help or guidance would be gratefully received
Thanks in advance
Pete
