Question

how to flip a text bubble ?

I have used the Text Bubble text effect on a short clip.

I have use the Transform control to change it's position and rotate it but in one case I need the bubble text to "come out" to the LEFT of the talking subject.

Don't understand how to mirror the bubble so that I can achieve this.

Thank you in advance.

Choosing one of the two left options flips the direction.

What text bubble? Plugin? No left right controls? There's an effect called Flipped that will let you reverse left and right.

Thank you so much. I did not find those options since I stayed on the Text pane of the inspector. Now on the Title pane all I need appears. Take care!!!
