Yes, same for breaking into lines. The positioning is the labour-intensive part that I’d like to rely on scripting for – actually breaking by lines isn’t too tough to do manually. Thanks!

Hello, before thanks for this. I would like to suggest if could be decompose animated texts, whit animation, like the presets by AE to personalize each character. I think could be cool. Excuseme for my english.

Thirded… This would be a huge time-saver, particularly for heavily text-based animation like kinetic stuff, etc.

I would like to have the option to keep words in their appropriate places too. Would really help with kinetic typography projects!

I third this. If you can leave characters in place, why not have that option for words? It would be great to have that feature– I’ve spent a lot of time repositioning words!

I think this is a fantastic script although I am wondering it’s limitations in using large amounts of text. I tried decomposing 1 long paragraph and after several hours it crashed AE. I tried this a second time and have a similar result. Any suggestions on how to use this script with lots of text content would be much appreciated!

Another vote for this! While the script is incredibly helpful, neither of its options seems ideal. A third option that both keeps the position *and* makes an appropriate anchor point would be perfect.

Is it the mercurial nature of AE text that makes this impossible?

I second this. I spend a lot of time repositioning the words wants I decompose the text

I second Eric’s comment. I would love the possibility of a new anchor point being generated that is appropriate to the size of the new word/ character created from decomposing, while remaining in its current location. — Thanks for all your help!

When I run the script with “preserve character location” Each character maintains it’s proper position but the character box is still the size of the full sentence. It would be nice, if there was another option for each charter to “preserve character location” combined with “appropriate anchor point”. So you would get a text box the size of each character and also in it’s current location.

Is there a work around to achieve that effect?

Thanks!
