Re: Accessing textIndex from the Position property
by Lloyd Alvarez on Sep 26, 2007 at 12:26:57 pm

Thanks for the reply Dan, but what that does (if i understand it correctly) is it offsets the characters [100,100] and the expression selector then randomizes how much each character gets offset but always in the direction of [100,100] so essentially all the characters drift in from the lower left in this case..

What I wish (and I am off to file a feature request since it's apparently not possible now) is to be able to access textIndex from Position so that I could write an expression that would be able to truly randomize the position of each character individually.
