Change "Start" value to around 5% and "End" value to 0%.Under the cursor layer, expand the properties panel for "Text > Animator 1 > Range Selector 1". But the cursor layers are not animate in a way that we want, which is staying the end of the text. When we scrub through the timeline now, we will see both text layers are animate in a way that they were being type out. Press "U" to view the newly added keyframes. Drag the preset and drop it on both text layers. Under "Effects & Presets" panel, search for "typewriter". So, the cursor layer will consist of 13 underscores, "_". For example "Hello World!" contain 12 characters including blank space. Total characters for the cursor layer should be more than the total characters in message layer. I am putting the two layers in different positions so we could see them clearer in this tutorial, but you could leave them in the same position. One for the text messages, and another one for the blinking cursor which I am using an underscore.

This tutorial only work with font which have fix and standard width. So, it might not be a good idea to use this for large body of texts. Typewriter effects are animate manually without the use of expression. Important! This tutorial only work with font which have fix and standard width.
