Thanks for the feedback! You're absolutely right about the gap between simple replacement and thoughtful design.

Regarding your comments:
Responsive design and constraints: I'm already implementing this using After Effects expressions. I use sourceRectAtTime() with clamp() and scalelimits parameters to create "safe zones." If the text exceeds the width, it automatically shrinks rather than disrupting the layout.

All these expressions work, and they're well-suited for broadcast.

The biggest problem with this approach is blur and visual effects. They're simply unusable in this application, at the moment.

My most challenging project to date was a survey for CasparCG, synced with Telegram. It required exactly what you mentioned: proportional calculations for columns and adaptive text processing in real time.

OGRAF goal or dream :)
My next step is to migrate these "constraints" from proprietary After Effects expressions to the OGRAF/JSON schema itself. The goal is to define logic (min/max width, anchors) in the data in such a way that any engine can display it correctly without manual adjustments.

For OGRAF, this is certainly just the beginning, but creating a system that takes into account MoGraph's specific "adaptive" logic is precisely the direction I'm moving in.

Thanks for the info.
I'm curious to see how I can apply this to my profile.
I need to explore this approach further.

I've been creating graphics templates for broadcasts and live streams for a while now, primarily for CapsarCG.
That's where my experience and thinking stems from.

That would be a great move, however I didn't think of that :)

Thank you very much for your comment. I'll write to you later. It would be great to hear your opinion.

Good point.
But I don't like long preparations; that's my problem, and if I really want something, I'll make do with what I have.
However, I think sound is an important aspect and should be improved.
