Display Modes
Display mode controls how words appear over time. There are three options:
Puffy
Puff · word
Word-by-Word
Each word appears individually as it's spoken. Clean, rhythmic, and great for fast-paced content where you want every word to land.

Chunk Highlight
Groups of words appear together while a color highlight sweeps across each word as it's spoken. Keeps the viewer oriented without losing flow.
Cinematic Power
Anton · chunk instant
Chunk Instant
Full chunks appear all at once without a sweeping highlight. Bold, cinematic, and works especially well with large fonts.
Word Effects
Apply a visual effect to any individual word — or randomize effects across all words for an energetic feel. Effects layer on top of the display mode.
Tap
Quick scale pop on the word.
Slide
Word slides in from the top.
Ping
Ripple ring pulses out.

Characters type in one-by-one.
