About mamoworld TextExploder

mamoworld TextExploder breaks After Effects text layers into separate pieces—characters, words, lines, an isolated word, or custom splits defined with Regular Expressions—while accurately preserving each character’s position. The tool creates clean text layers that contain only visible text, without hidden expressions or animators. Version 3 adds Per Character Text Styles for multi‑color, multi‑font layers, requiring After Effects 24.3 or newer. It supports 3D layers, bounded (box) text, animated position, and layers with separate dimensions, handling left, right, and center alignment but not justified text or vertical type. Integration with KBar enables toolbar access, and a scripting API allows automation. A limited version is bundled in Squash & Stretch Pro, lacking KBar, scripting, and per‑character style support.
