Text styles and fonts

Text properties provide Automatic, Left-to-right, and Right-to-left base direction plus a BCP 47 language tag for browser shaping and accessibility. Enable mixed styles divides authored text into ordered editable runs; each run can override color, weight, italics, and font family while the layer retains one transform, outline, animation, and data identity. A content binding preserves styled runs while its value matches the authored text. New operator text replaces them with plain text to avoid applying stale character ranges.

Text clipping margins

Select a text object and set Overflow to Clip in Properties. Horizontal clip margin expands the clip on both sides, and Vertical clip margin expands it above and below. The values are composition pixels from 0 to 512. Margins leave wrapping and font fitting intact. With Auto Size, a nonzero margin follows the measured text box as bound data changes. The controls apply to text boxes. Crawls and text on a path use their own clipping behavior.

Font library

For a text layer, Properties → Browse fonts… opens the bundled font library. Its previews use the selected text; adding a family embeds its files and license in the project for offline export.
