AE Expression: Define FontSize

Question

I'm making a complicated watch UI with a lot of expressions linked to different values of the display.

As you can see from the image below, 9hrs isn't bonded to an expression yet, but it's graphically correct: 9 and hrs have different font sizes.

100min instead is bonded to an expression and it does disrupt the font formatting making min the same size as 100.

//This is the expression
Math.round(thisComp.layer("Orange").content("Trim Paths 1").end.value.toFixed(0)) + "min" 

Is there a way to tell that string that the font size for 'min' needs to be of 40px?

PLEASE, EXPRESSION ANSWERS ONLY

Thanks!

Answer 1

Have you tried the parameter fontSize (note the lower case at beginning and upper case in the middle?)

Answer 2

Would it work to right-align the number text layer, make a second left-aligned text layer for "min" and pick whip the position to the number text layer position?

If you wanted a different alignment you could grab the number layer width and add that to the position so it would always be offset correctly.
