Animate text on a path in Motion
You can animate text so that it moves across the text path.
Animate text on a path
In Motion, create a path for the text to travel along.
In the Timeline, move the playhead to the frame where you want to begin the animation, then press A to turn on keyframe recording.
In the Layout pane of the Text Inspector, adjust the Path Offset slider (or the adjacent value slider) to the amount you want to move the text on the path.
A keyframe is added to the Path Offset parameter.
A positive value moves the text toward the right, and a negative value moves the text toward the left. You can enter values greater than 100% or less than 0% in the value slider.
Move the playhead to the frame where you want to place the next keyframe.
Adjust the Path Offset slider or value slider.
Press A again to turn off keyframe recording.
When you play back the project, the text travels long the path.
