Hi,
I’m trying to make a sort of text pop but I want to animate each individual character separately so I’m putting each in their own label but the metrics that I get back are not consistent so I can’t replicate the look it would have if the entire word was is in a single label.
When I enter the word in the label and get its width I get 175 back, but when I do the same for the individual characters and add their widths together I get 221. There is little additional information returned by the metrics so I don’t know how to use that info to correctly space the characters next to each other to replicate the original look.
Attached is a screenshot of how it looks if I use the previous character’s width as an offset for the next one (in orange) and how it compares to the original string (in black)
