### Requirements
{% hint style="info" %}
We have tested Text Animator 3.X with Naninovel version **1-21-stable**
It should work with all versions within Naninovel **1.X**, but if you notice that some breaking changes were introduced - please let us know!
{% endhint %}
{% hint style="warning" %}
In order to use Naninovel's typewriter (reveal), **you must disable Text Animator's typewriter** - otherwise they would conflict and you wouldn't be able to use both features flawleslly. Sorry! It is a compromise needed in order to not change any plugin structure and stability, but you can always extend both assets manually based on your needs.
{% endhint %}
### Integration Steps
For every text that you would want to animate (for example, text printers):
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
#### Add a "Text Animator" component
You must add a Text Animator component on the same GameObject that has a **TMPro text**.
If you want to have custom, already applied effects (e.g. rot and shake when appearing) on your text, make sure to set default tags in the inspector. Read more here: [How to add effects](/text-animator-unity/effects/how-to-add-effects.md)
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
#### Remove the "Reveal Fader" (if any)
If you have a "Revealable" text, make sure you **remove** the "Reveal Fader" component entirely. The inspector should look like the following:
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}
That's it!!
The most common setup is to have a **Text Printer** that has animated text content inside it. To do so, you can
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
#### Set up your text printer
1. To have a text printer that has animated text, you can either modify an already existing one (e.g. "Fullscreen", inside Naninovel's plugin folder) or create a new one entirely (e.g. duplicating the "Fullscreen" prefab and naming it "FullscreenTAnim")
2. Locate all the texts you want to be animated, and apply the steps above (adding TAnim component + remove Revealable Fader)
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
#### Add or modify your target text printer
If you have modified an existing text printer, of you have created a new one, make sure that it exists and is set up / assigned correctly in the "Text Printers" category of your Project Settings / Naninovel.
Naninovel documentation about adding custom printers:

{% endstep %}

#### Modify the backlog canvas / message
If you have rich text tags in your dialogues, especially showing up in **text printers**, you'll probably want to add a "Text Animator" component on every text that would display them (like the backlog), or you risk of having one prefab/component that will not recognize Text Animator tags, and show them fully in the text.
The most common object to modify and make sure it has a Text Animator component, is the **backlog**.
As always -> locate the prefab you want to edit and add a Text Animator component. (if you have a "Reveal fader", remove it.
