Hello.

I am new using Wick Editor, I am not very sure how to use your project.

What do you mean by “dropping an object” inside the square?

Dropping it in from the asset library in the bottom right!

Oh okay! My bad, I didn’t see the assets section. Your program is very nice but wow it’s kind of long to do if you are trying to do a novel with thousands of dialogue.

Props to your project, it really helped me understand more this Software!

I did a different approach on the animation part, now you only have to write the full text once without breaking it into multiple chunks, what do you think?

My god you are a genius. I might start implementing this.

another way would be to tween a box shrinking instead of making multiple of the same box.
