After you created the Text Line you can change the main settings via the textline effect on that layer.
Since this layer is technically a shape layer, you can add effects or animations like trim paths via the shape layer menu .
If you want to have mutliple lines on the same shape layer, simply duplicate the textline shape layer group and the "textline" effect. If the name of the group and the effect match, the group inherit its settings from the effect. Otherwise the settings falls back to the default "textline" effect settings.
Choose the position/style of the line.
Defines the distance between the line and the source layer. The padding tries to stay constant while changing the stroke width.
To keep this working, don't change the name "textline - Stroke" of the stroke. If you change the stroke (e.g. to a gradient stroke) rename the stroke back to "textline - Stroke".
The line is to short? No problem, just extend it left (= start) and right (= end).
To fix the size to a certain point in time of the parent layer, simply disable the Live checkbox and modify the Static slider to your needs (0% = parents inPoint. 100% = parents outPoint).
