Super Text | Geometry Nodes setup for Text animation

Super Text is a Geometry node setup for making text design and animation in Blender. The perfect complement to any video that needs 3D text, great for Motion Graphics

A quick map of where to change the Super Text settings

Design Features

You can achieve a complete custom design with the 7 nodes (Main Extrusion, Stroke, Instances, Custom Object, Plasma Fill, )

and you can also achieve a good-looking design with the Simple design node

You have options like:

• ON/OFF each piece of the text (main extrusion, steps, instances along curve, custom objects)
• Select materials for each part of the design (Procedural or image-based textures )
• Bevel and shade smooth options
• Round corners
• Trim and offset the strokes and many more!

Animation Features

• Basic transformations: Translate, rotate, and scale
• Add random transformations and change the seed
• Stagger animation (or not) you choice
• Turn ON/OFF the IN or OUT animation with one click
• Custom the easing
• Line delay
• Change the pivot point
• Choose between Lienar or spherical animation and preview their falloffs
• Set IN and OUT animations completely different

CHANGELOG

V1 (release, September 2022)

• Custom animation easing
• Transform options: rotate, scale, translate
• Text on curve
• Independent IN/OUT animations
• You can set any custom material for each part of the text (only procedural materials)
• Turn on/off stagger animation

V2 (December 2022)

• Fix Errors
• Remove Text on curve option
• Completely remake of Design nodes, now we have a Simple Node design and multiple nodes for custom designs: Fill, Stroke, Instances, and Custom Object
• UVMapping in order to support PBR textures
• Add random to transformations (animation)

V3 (April 2023)

• 3 new node groups for Text Design: Plasma Fill, Plasma side, and Wireframe/Instances
• Normalized animation values: now the animation values always will be between 0 an 1, independently of the long of text or effector size
• Radial animation option (appear from the center) added
• Line delay option when is a multiple lines text

V4 (September 2023)

• Super Text now also works with SVG curves, with 2 new node setups
• Remake of some design nodes to improve performance and easier use
• Now change the pivot easily for rotation, scale, translation
• The Text on curve feature came back  from version 1
• Some parameters remapped between 0 and 1 or -1 and 1 for easier and more understandable use
• Now the parameters that most affects performance are marked with an * so that they are easily identifiable
  

V5 (January 2024)

• Node tree simplified
• Now set the line breaks writing an asterisk *
• Preview Pivot point
• Preview Falloffs
• Random transformation: constraint the axis
• Spheric Falloff: position control
• Fix on the Custom node object
• New tutorials updated to version 5
