Adding and trimming multiple text behaviors
Let's explore some of the behaviors Motion has to offer us for the text.
Getting Ready
Open the 5_05
project from the exercise folder for this chapter. Play back the project. It consists of a background and three pieces of text
that come on screen one second after each other.
How to do it...
We're going to start by having our text come from different directions offscreen to onscreen.
Click on the disclosure triangle to open the Text group in the Layers tab. Select the Ready text and press Command + 2 to go to the Library. Navigate to Behaviors | Text Sequence | Text Basic. Select the Slide In behavior and click on Apply.
Move to 1 second on the mini-Timeline. Press Command + Option + O to trim the out-point of the play range. Play back the animation. Press Command + - twice to zoom out on the Canvas. Click and drag the red arrow until it's offscreen left as shown in the following screenshot. Press F2 to go to the Behaviors tab of the Inspector.
