Re: [Nuke-users] Automatically control Text size

Hi Holger, thanks for this. I've been using this for a while now, but it quickly becomes apparent that a word with a lot of 'l's and 'i's will need to be bigger than a word with a lot of 'o's and 'c's. Thanks, Ron Ganbar email: ron...@gmail.com tel: +44 (0)7968 007 309 [UK] +972 (0)54 255
