placing font around a line

[Master chief]

Ok second post for the day

 

im wondering it theres a easy way to have fonts follow along a line , or do you have to move every thing manualy ?

Sure, you could add a bone to each letter, then give each one a path constraint. That's how I would do it anyway.

 

Or give each letter an Orient Like and Translate To constraint and assign a graduating percentage of lag to each one.

If you need to animate them along a line you'll need to do like Gerry suggested. They can all use the same path constraint, but with different ease settings.

 

 

If you just need to model them along a line there's an example in the tuts link in my sig.
