Important:

You do not need to create an animation (keyframes) to use the “To Entire

Object” option.

•

To Selection: Changes the timing of the original animation to “fit” within the
selection. Each selection (by character, word, line, and so on) goes through the entire
source animation as the selection moves across the text object.

Using the same 100 to 250 percent Scale animation example, the first character
grows from 100 percent to 250 percent and holds at 250 percent, the second
character grows from 100 percent to 250 percent and holds at 250 percent, and so
on, until all characters have completed the animation.

The Text Sequence behavior Drop & Bounce is an example of the To Selection
animation mapping.

Important:

Using the To Selection option requires a keyframed animation.
