•
Both: When variance is applied, the values dened in the Sequence Text behavior (above the
Add and Remove pop-up menus) at the start and end of the behavior are xed to the rst
and last frames of the behavior.
•
Neither: When variance is applied, the values dened in the Sequence Text behavior (above
the Add and Remove pop-up menus) at the start and end of the behavior are not xed
to the rst or last frames of the behavior. In the following images, the text position is
sequenced. Fix is set to Neither.
•
Attribute: Use this pop-up menu to sequence the warping of attributes. There are ve menu
options:
•
Transform Glyph: Displays the glyph onscreen controls, allowing for the selection of
characters of a text object for direct manipulation. For more information about sequencing
using the glyph onscreen tools, see Use the From Keyframes sequencing option on
page 685.
•
Face: Displays onscreen controls that allow you to modify the shape, size, and position of the
face (color ll) of text characters.
•
Outline: Displays onscreen controls that allow you to modify the shape, size, and position of
the outline of text characters.
•
Glow: Displays onscreen controls that allow you to modify the shape, size, and position of
the glow of text characters.
•
Drop Shadow: Displays onscreen controls that allow you to modify the shape, size, and
position of the drop shadow of text characters.
For more information about sequencing the warping of text attributes, see Sequence the
distortion of style attributes on page 686.
•
Position Type: Use this pop-up menu to specify whether an attribute is oset from the text
uniformly (choose Absolute), or oset based on the size of text characters (choose Relative).
•
Absolute: When osetting attributes, such as glows, shadows, and so on from text objects,
choose Absolute to create an even oset regardless of the size of the text characters. In the
following image, the yellow glow is uniformly oset from the white text because Absolute is
chosen from the Position Type pop-up menu.
