Yes I bought this because I was hoping it would create the unique tik tok look of the 2-3 line rounded and contoured boxes as it wraps around the text. I am very disappointed that this feature is not implemented. Its not worth the full 14.99 I paid with this function missing from the plug in. Please updated!

Hello Adam,
I am sorry to hear that you are unhappy with your purchase.
TikTokText is offered on a 'Name Your Own Price' format, so you are always welcome to test out the extension for free before committing to purchasing it.
Unfortunately, creating auto-sizing, multi-line text boxes that match TikTok's text-wrapping look is not simple with shape layers and expressions but it is something I am actively pursuing and may be able to add it in as a extra feature in the future.
However it is not currently (09/Jan/23) advertised as available functionality anywhere on the TikTokText page.
It would be nice if you could set the font size and break text into multiple lines before "generating" the text boxes, as it defaults to font size 100 and makes the rounded corners fit—but changing the text size will skew the text box corners. When decreasing font size of the text after-the-fact, the pickwhipped shape layers will compress horizontally, but not vertically. Manually compressing the text box shape vertically will not result in smooth circular corners, but squish them.

Bummer.
Hello!
The auto-sizing capabilities of TikTokText boxes and the autosizing of the rounded stroke is all achieved through expressions in after effects.
The best way to resize the text and any boxes is to use the scale property of the text layer as opposed to changing the text font size in the character panel.
Just wanted to drop a quick note to say a huge thank you for the plugin! I love that you offered it as a "Name Your Own Price" download because, truth be told, I couldn't afford it right now. Your generosity means a lot, and I can't wait to use the plugin in my projects. You rock!

Can include please auto pre comp & time controllers with markers?
I was wondering about the possibility of adding multiple lines to the text field instead of only one
Bummer.
Also, the Handwriting Font doesnt seem to work for me, is there any fix?
