In the image I have made some effects, I did a copy of effect to presets.
Then made a new text layer and went to presets and found the speaker animated i made a while back and implemented this is all fine.
I repeated with a new text layer for flashing effect of text which was saved out to presets.
Repeated above effect not applied as i see no flashing of text, i got around this by going back to the flashing text I made copy the effect and then re opened the text and editor apply effect.
That probably all sounds very confusing

I think i am correct you cannot animate text this way ? At the moment.
Another area i often produce text is by key framing to apply this flashing of text with some blur and the long zoom, so that is 3 effects.
On the time line is it possible to copy and paste these effects while in the editor and apply, rather than repeat on the time line?
Example might be say 20 seconds of text, make flashing and all effects for say 10 secs (this is a frame by frame add effect) now copy the first 10 seconds and paste else where on the time line.
Can this be done ?
As i have written this I’m even confused in text format, so if others find it difficult to understand I can produce a recorded video to show, just ask.
