Wow, Trent. You've completely saved my day! This issue arose because my coworkers remain blissfully ignorant of After Effects and it's wonders. Since they wouldn't learn something new, they're now getting an easy-to-use template for making their own nameplates!

I plugged the script in to the scale property, as you said....and KABOOM! it worked! Just a little bit of tweaking was needed, but it was easy enough to get the X value right :-D

in short, THANKS THANKS!
RY
