Description

The Complete Text Workflow Suite for After Effects

TextLab Pro brings Quality Analysis, Operations, and Styling into one powerful panel. Analyze safe zones, batch-fix text issues, animate with presets, and style your typography — all without leaving After Effects.

Quality Analysis

TextLab Pro Safe Zone Analysis for After Effects

Get a complete overview of your project's text health: total text layers, scale issues, average read time, anchor problems, colors used, expressions, and effects — all at a glance. Export a detailed report for your team or client with one click.

Instantly check if your text layers are within safe zones for any aspect ratio. Analyze for 6 aspect ratios — 9:16, 16:9, 1:1, 4:5, 2:3, and 3:4 — simultaneously with a built-in visual preview. Each layer is classified as Safe, Risky, or Outside — so you never deliver a project with cut-off text again.

Operations

TextLab Pro Fix All Issues - Batch fix text layers in After Effects

Fix All Issues resets scales to 100%, centers anchor points, and trims whitespace across all selected text layers in a single click. No more hunting through layers one by one — let TextLab Pro handle the cleanup so you can focus on the creative work.

Resize your composition to match text bounds with adjustable padding. Perfect for creating lower thirds, titles, and text elements that need pixel-perfect sizing. Combined with Case Converter, Auto Rename, Trim Whitespace, and find Placeholders — the Operations tab covers every text workflow need.

Fit Comp to Shape

Auto-resize the composition to the selected shape layer's bounds — including stroke width and layer styles. All other layers shift along to preserve their relative position. Adjustable padding control.

Styling

Apply text animations with real-time Live Preview. Choose from 8 basic animation types (Fade, Scale, Up, Down, Left, Right, Pop, Blur) with adjustable duration and easing curves. Switch to the Presets tab to browse and apply 15 included FFX presets with animated thumbnails — what you see is what you get.

Style Sync lets you copy and paste font, size, color, and tracking between text layers instantly. Multi-Outline adds up to 3 customizable outline strokes with Sports, Retro, Neon, and Custom presets. Per-Character Color applies Colorful (with palette presets and color offset control), Gradient, or Alternate color modes to individual characters. Stroke Reveal animates an outline drawing effect with Wave, Sync, or Traveling animation, Clean, Neon, or Trail styles, and full control over duration, width, and color.
