Godot 4.3
Hello everyone, I can’t find anywhere a way to make text appear with letter-by-letter animation. To conditionally, each letter that appears is accompanied by its own animation of appearance, let’s say it goes from size 0 to normal size.
How can this be done in Godot 4?
Please help!!
How much text?
If it is just a title like “My Game”, just add each letter one by one into a HBox container. On animation finished, or on a timer, add the next letter until all the letters have animated and appeared.
If you are talking about a lot of text, then I would have to rethink that idea.
Hope that helps.
By the way, thanks for the idea, but I need to implement a dialog system and I want to add my own animation for the appearance of each letter, can this be somehow implemented and applied to a textbox?
I’m not totally sure what you’re going for, but have you tried using tweens? From what I understand, they can be used to change the attribute of a node’s property over a certain amount of time. I’m using a tween on a text label’s visible ratio property to have my dialogue come in letter by letter. This page helped me:

The issue he is facing is that you cannot tween a single letter in label, just the entire label.

No it will not work for lots of text. In my own dialogue system I added the letters one by one to the label, which was fairly straight forward, but I don’t know how you would animate them individually. Sorry.
Okay, I’ll see what can be done, thanks for the feedback!
Nothing, everything is fine, I am still grateful that you paid attention, I would clearly like to see in the format of a video or instructions how to implement such animation in the dialogue system…
