    Hi Armin,
    thank you for your quick reply.

    OK, I see – I hadn’t thought of that solution with the text style; thank you.

    I’ve carried out all the settings and steps you told me to, as well as the latest update.

    Unfortunately, I’m still having two problems: I can’t centre my text with a background font (the text style doesn’t seem to support it), and the text animation with the background isn’t working properly. I’ve included a link to my test here so you can see for yourself.

    Thanks for your help!
    Antoine

          Hi Armin,

          Great, thanks for your feedback.
          I’ve copied the page with the effect so you can see it: https://selah.fr/en/home-copy/

                  Hi Armin, I’ve installed the latest update and the text display effect is working perfectly. The problem is, I made a mistake and deleted the pre-saved ‘typewriters’ effect – is it possible to restore the default settings? Many thanks. Antoine

                    there is no way to restore this.

                    you can try

                    animation type: typewriter
                    duration: 0 ms
                    stagger: 40 ms
                    stagger easing: linear
                    delay: 0 ms

                      Hello Armin,
                      Thank you for your reply!

                      I think I didn’t express myself clearly – I meant that I’ve removed the basic typewriter effect; it’s no longer available in the settings. Thank you for your help.
