Preview and Edit effects

You can edit any effect currently being used by a Text Animator component by simply going to its Inspector -> Edit Effects and Actions -> expand the category you’re interested in -> edit any value.

Example: editing the 'bounce' behavior effect

Since Effects are stored inside ScriptableObjects, which are “data containers” that are independent from any scene or component, you can reference them from your scripts and modify their values at any time, without needing to have a Text Animator component in your scene to access them.

Edit Mode Preview

You can preview the result of your effects in Edit Mode by clicking on the “Play” button in the TextAnimator component.

From there you can either use the Slider to show and hide text from the first or last letter, or hide words and letters individually.
