The video is not showing up – it’s cut off. Only the volume and playhead are visible.

This video is nice but my 90 degree turn makes my text vanish and I did use the hand tool to try and find it but it is gone any clue?

Why do you need to make the first text 3D?

When the text is gone after makin tht 90 degree u may wanna minimize it again just to find it and then maximize it to performe the effect. Work w me.

Petter Alex, if you have the spanish languaje version, instead of Ramp effect, look for “Pendiente” in the “Generar” effect
