How to animate a background using text lines with the Typewriter animation
-
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!

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/ -

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
We also code custom websites or bespoke Lay features. Drop me a line at info@laytheme.com or check out my work at arminunruh.com.
