The Use Percent Completion checkbox determines whether the text auto-animates or is
animated manually. When this checkbox is selected, Percent Completion animates the
position of the text. When this checkbox is deselected, Percent Completion has no affect.

When the Continuously Rasterize checkbox is selected, the vector form of the text is forced
to recalculate based on Transformations parameter changes. While this is useful for speciÞc
types of effects, it is unnecessary for many effects and can slow performance - most
noticeably when using sophisticated text styles or long text rolls. Select the Continuously
Rasterize checkbox to improve image quality in the following situations.

When the Scale parameters are set to scale the text much larger than 100% size.

When using large negative Position Z values.

When the Tumble or Spin parameters are set so that parts of the text appear very close

to the viewer.

When Rotating text with a bevel or emboss style and you want the highlight to

recalculate accordingly.

When using the Continuously Rasterize option, set up the effect with the option disabled to
improved preview performance. Then select the option as a Þnal step to improve the render.

Note that the 1:2:1 DeFlicker option does not apply if Continuously Rasterize is
enabled.
