Every preset

No "and more". Here's every preset, and exactly what each category writes into your project.

Easing

9 presets

Native temporal ease on selected keys, selected properties or every animated property. Springs and overshoot on Position become an expression.

Text

18 presets

Real text animators. Eased cascades use the Range Selector; springs are timed from a layer marker you can drag or stretch to retime.

Transitions

14 presets

Workflow

It tells you what it'll do before you click.

The bar at the bottom always says what Apply will act on — "1 text layer · from the playhead", "2 keyframes", or "Select a text layer". No guessing, and every Apply is a single undo step.
