Well Dave Pitts has done it again. We had a discussion on Saturday. I told him what i needed in text, he has now released a new text engine.

Here are the changes
1) There are two tabs, one for each line of text.
2) You can now have each line of text
     a) have a separate direction
     b) a different font
     c) a different color
3) Two new direction choices.
"vertical text up:, "vertical text down". This means stacking your letters from a line of text on top of each other without rotating the text. This
was an effect requested. I need this for my sons memorial show in 2 days.
4) Changes the Top, Left 2 slider bars into a single Position Slider



I made a 5 minute video describing the new effect, You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login

Dave left out the separate color per line. This is a one line change in the code. I felt useful,
"I am helping". I called Dave and told him i added an extra feature to his release.
I felt good  until Dave told me he left it for me to find.

Thanks Dave! Awesome work, as always

Why is the volume on your video so low?

Very interesting effect though.

I saw in the last video about the different colors per line. Good to see that added. Time to get me some flexstrips :)

That is very nice! I like the Star Wars text effect with "vertical text up" on a mega tree!
