    the stroke scaling dynamically has been driving me mad for months. I never thought to move it, THANK YOU!

    • @ECAbrams
      @ECAbrams  6 років тому +1

      It's a pretty fun move. You can nest so many things above the stroke that it can really become a powerful technique.

    Hi Evan, thanks for your marvelous video. I tried it out, but ran into problems when I wanted TWO lines of text (with different fonts/sizes), sort of like you use in your own intro. I run into problems probably because the anchor points of the text layer and the outline are messing things up.
    I see in the beginning of your video that you have an extra null layer and the two text layers are linked to that null layer. How do I set that up so that the outline scales to the size of both the text layers together?

    Hi Evan, great tutorial as always. You’re always a go to for AE!
    Question, we have an existing template that has a title slide out from behind a little shape graphic and is ‘hidden’ by a track matte. All we have to do is change the name and we’re good to go, except sometimes the name is too long so sticks out from behind the track matte before it animates. Easy enough to fix in AE but I want to make an essential graphics template for Premiere, and can’t work out how to enable position adjustments for the start of the animation. Any tips? Thanks a million

    Hi very nice and informative video. Although i have two questions. You place everything, text and shape in the center, what if you want to appear the box and the text from the left?
    Also is it possible through graphic essentials to type a text and automatically where there is an number to make it let's say bold and red?

    awesome stuff. 2 questions.
    what if I wanted to edit the time at when things happened. for example if its a longer line of text and I did an animate out. how do I tell it "hey dude, animate out at 5 seconds instead of 3"
    question 2. how do I do it to have multiple lines of text in the same essential graphics panel. so the client can type in line for line in the same thing without having to pull in multiple copies of the same Essential Graphis. Thanks!
