stop and resume the "type on" effect for a paragraph of text

In Motion 5, I applied the type on behavior effect to a paragraph of text. But I'd like to pause the typing for 1 second after every line of text in the paragraph. I know how to do it in After Effects but I don't have access anymore to that program. In AE, you just add a stop keyframe. But I don't know how to do this in Motion 5 or if its even possible.

Thank you in advance for any help with this.

how do you prevent text from wrapping in a Motion text box so the Enter key has no effect? Does anybody know how to prevent text from wrapping in a Motion text box so the Enter key has no effect? I know in Adobe After Effects there is a written expression that is commonly used to achieve the same thing. I have tried playing with text paths and different behaviours like link, negate, clamp, stop etc. but no luck. I am just trying to create a simple generator effect I can use in Final Cut Pro where I enter text in a box but when I hit the enter key I don't want the text cursor to move to the next line. Am I overlooking something extremely obvious? Is there a way to edit the xml to disable the enter key? Does anybody know? Is this the wrong place to ask this? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thx!

Lock Duration Of Behaviours To Set Duration Hello all, Im working only on a small titles effect I want to use in videos. Its just a basic text with a behaviour My question is, how to lock the duration of the 'peek in' effect so when I change the duration of the title effect in Final Cut Pro the 'peek in' effect the duration stays the same. At the moment if I have something longer with more text the peek in effect (making the duration longer of the title) just looks horrible in slow motion and then you don't see any animation if it is a one worded title for a short duration.

Motion 5 character animation question Hello, I'm trying to animate my simple text. Is there any possibility to change the speed of single character appearing in the whole text? For example, I'm adding the blur behaviour to my text and I want to change the speed of text appearing just in the end of the word (not in the whole word or line). Thanks in advance.
