You could also use a regular expression to do all that wrapping of <span> elements for you, add a class, and even adjust the duration based on how many characters are in each line so that you get a much more consistent speed:

Thank you for the suggestion!
It is actually something that I have tried to do: putting a <br> tag in place of a "\n". However, the actual rawText contains multi-level indentations (or spaces) that gets treated as a single space rather than many individual ones by the TextPlugin between each 'word'. As you can see from the demos all of above.
Is there a way for TextPlugin to not join the spaces?
Once more, thank you for your reply!

Hi Ian,
Would it be possible to put together a minimal demo so we can see how you're formatting the text?
It's difficult to know what's going on without a look at the animation.
Thanks!Hello Cassie,
Here are the demos that I made just now.

Hello,
I wanted to create a console log typing effect with the GSAP TextPlugin. I have a container that has preserved formatted text (spaces for indentations and line breaks without <br>) that I tried to animate with gsap.from() method and the text: {value: ""} property. However, when not manipulated by GSAP, the formatting is fine. But when I used the method mentioned above, all indentations and line breaks are not respected.
Is there a way for GSAP to preserve such format?I have tried the below example to simulate a text typing effect (another version with a timeout/await between each iteration) but I lose easing functionality that I would really love to have, though the method preserved the formatting.
for (var i = 0; i < text.length; i++) { container.textContent += text[i] }
Thank you for your considerations.
