title: "Per Word Rise"
description: "Words or characters rise into place in a controlled blur-to-sharp cascade, settle softly on landing, and hold still until the cut (optional fade or up exit)."

## Install
That writes one file: `compositions/components/per-word-rise.html`.
## Paste it into your composition
Open `compositions/components/per-word-rise.html` and copy what is inside into your own composition.
A component has no size or duration of its own. It takes both from the composition
you paste it into.
## Variables
Every one of these has a default, so the piece works untouched. Set the ones you
want to change on the element:
| Variable | Default | Accepts | What it does |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `text` | `WORDS IN MOTION` | string | Text whose words or characters rise into place. |
| `split` | `word` | `word`, `char` | Animate the text as words or individual characters. |
| `cues` | `` | string | Comma-separated seconds (from mount start) for each unit landing. Empty keeps the authored cascade rhythm. |
| `accent` | `green` | `green`, `blue`, `violet` | Contract accent token used for the text color. |
| `exit` | `none` | `none`, `fade`, `up` | Optional departure. Default none: the line holds until the frame cuts. |
Set them with `data-variable-values` on the element that mounts it. These are the
defaults, so this behaves exactly like the preview above until you change one:
