Hi, all.
I hope this is a simple question. Is there a way to speed up text? All I'm trying to do is have my text (one word) spiral for two minutes fast, but if I put it on the timeline and expand/drag it for those two minutes, it's going to play super slow. If I make a snapshot of it, same thing. Thanks.

Hi Faithhicks

Welcome to the volunteer forum

Great question

The speed of the text is determined by the length of it - however you can 'speed' or 'slow/stop' text down by Spliting the text into parts and changing the motion of them

Happy editing

Thanks for the tip Cubby. I'm assuming that this is still a feature with the latest version, correct?
