Apple Motion 4 - Manual (Page 1487)

Rate: Increases or decreases the rate of the crawl. By default, Rate is set to 10 (pixels per
second). A higher rate increases the speed of the crawl, so the text travels a greater
distance over time; a lower rate slows the crawl.
Note: Although the Rate slider value is limited to 100, you can enter a higher value in the
value slider.
Position Offset: Offsets the start position of the text. By default, the crawl animation
begins at the original position of the text. To move the text further to the right at the
start of the animation, enter a higher number in the Position Offset field. For example,
to move the text 80 pixels to the right, drag the Position Offset slider to 80 or enter 80
in the value slider.
Note: Although the slider value is limited to 100, you can enter a higher value in the
Offset value slider.
End Offset: By default, the text crawls to the end of the duration of the text. To stop the
crawl 60 frames from the end of the text layer (or project), for example, drag the End
Offset slider to 60 or enter 60 in the value slider.
Note: Although the slider value is limited to 100, you can enter a higher value in the End
Offset value slider.
Scroll Up and Scroll Down Controls (Motion 3.0.2 and Earlier)
Use the parameters in the Scroll Up or Scroll Down behavior tabs in the Inspector to
modify the scrolling animation.
Rate: Increases or decreases the rate of the scroll. By default, Rate is set to 10 (pixels per
second). A higher rate increases the speed of the scroll, so the text travels a greater
distance over time; a lower rate slows the scroll.
Note: Although the Rate slider value is limited to 100, you can enter a higher value in the
value slider.
Position Offset: Offsets the start position of the text. By default, the scroll animation
begins at the original position of the text.
Note: Although the slider value is limited to 100, you can enter a higher value in the
Offset value slider.
End Offset: By default, the text scrolls to the end of the duration of the text. To stop the
scroll 60 frames from the end of the text layer (or project), for example, drag the End
Offset slider to 60 or enter 60 in the value slider.
Note: Although the slider value is limited to 100, you can enter a higher value in the End
Offset value slider.
