Thank you @Khemardi! Actually your animation brought me idea that it would be nice to create a set of templates with animated text. The text string can be exported value, so user will be able to easily set any text and get impressive animation. Very useful for motion graphics!

With recent PR from @rodolforg the rendering speed is not a problem for text anymore :slight_smile: -
