Problem in AfterEffects

• CygnusZero2

  I cannot seem to figure out how to skew text layers in AE. This is driving me insane. Any help will make me very happy.

  There's a transformer effect within the effects list.

  what version are you using?...

  open up your texts options on the left twirl down menu you will see an animate text with an arrow pointing to the right, click this and you will see a drop down form that chose skew notice how a new animator property has been added to your text options, now do your animation.

  Use an adjustment layer with for instance a distort effect.
  On the text layer itself it will only transform untille the end of the bounding box, with the adjust layer it transforms full comp size...
