Problem with Text Layers Position when importing to After Effects #186

Open SalomeMotion opened 9 months ago

SalomeMotion commented 9 months ago

Describe the bug Problem with Text Layers Position when importing to After Effects. My text layers in Figma do not look the same once I import them in After.

Expected behavior I'd like the text layers to keep the same position as they had in Figma

Screenshots Screen one, the aspect in Figma: well organized Screen two, the aspect in After Effects, the text layers have been all position a bit higher than what they should as if the anchor points of those layers wasn't the same from Figma to After Capture 1 Capture 2

This will never work correctly because of text differences in the programs.

Work around is to export the guide layer and reposition. Usually the value is similar for all font sizes.

Another option is to CMD+E on the text field to make them shapes (you can do this with a duplicate layer if you don’t want to lose the live text. Shapes will always come in perfectly positioned.
