Embedded Fields

...

The text in text layers may contain embedded fields of the form {object:property}. Such fields are replaced with their values before the text is displayed.

For example, {timeline:frame} is replaced with the current frame, and {4:timecode} is replaced with the embedded timecode of layer 4.

This is useful for burn-ins when creating previews and dailies.

For more information about the syntax check the Text fields reference.
