: Wordprocessor Preset - AfterEffect: How to keep cursor blinking at end of line of text? First time using the Wordproccessor preset in AfterEffects, Trying to create the effect of typing on computer

@Megan533

You can animate your cursor layer to blink by just keyframing one single loop on the Opacity property, like below:


Then, Option-Click the stopwatch for the Opacity property and you'll activate it for expressions. Twirl open the little menu at the end of the list and select Property->loopOut. You can select to either control it via keyframes or duration. If you don't edit the expression at all, loopOut will continue looping your keyframes til the end of the comp.
