Text rendering

[jlongster]

From what I can tell lottie does not support text rendering. I can't find an existing issue about it though. Is it being worked on? Can we keep this issue open until it's fixed, so others know the status?

[jlongster]

Looks like it's supported on Android at least: airbnb/lottie-android#343

[jlongster]

I just found #290, and I see text rendering is coming, but it would probably be helpful to keep this issue open so other can find it first. People aren't going to go back and read closed issues, and if it's something being worked on it seems like there should be an existing issue for it. You won't get as many people asking about it then :)

Will keep open and update as progress happens.
We are currently thinking through Text rendering and deciding on a clean interface to support internationalizations.

Is there any way that @jlongster and I can help? We are about to write [crude] support for text rendering ourselves, but maybe there's a way we can all work together and perhaps land a more limited version pretty quickly?

[jnkfong]

is there any updates for text layering implementation on ios?

[rotorgames]

Hi everyone. Any news about it?

[sjmueller]

Hey there. Haven't heard anything, but our offer still stands; @jlongster and I can help!

I'm a little confused as to what sort of text rendering you're looking for- can you elaborate? Lottie seems fully capable of displaying text strings for me. (or was this very recently added?)

[jfulker]

@pegeseus are you able to render text dynamically on iOS? We aren't having success rendering text (unless as glyphs exported from Bodymovin). So, dynamic text rendering.

[pegeseus]

Hi Jim, no sorry I haven't tried it on iOS. We are only using it to render in html and seems to work fine.

Hey @buba447 thanks again for all your help supporting this tool, been a game changer! I was searching through the github repository and found this request, wanted to +1 on it, we definitely need dynamic text rendering. Is there any target for delivering this functionality?

Now supported in 3.0
Lottie has been completely rewritten in Swift as of 3.0 (#777)

I am closing all issues prior to this release to reduce the noise. If you continue to run into this issues or any issue with Lottie 3.0 please open a new ticket

For continued support of Lottie Objective-c please point to this branch: https://github.com/airbnb/lottie-ios/tree/lottie/objectiveC

How is dynamic text change supported in 3.0. Could you provide an example?
