Keeping Exponential Scale "live" with expressions
|
| |
Is there a way to replicate the Exponential Scale via expression? As you know, once you run the animation assistant, the keyframes are locked down and if I need to change the start or end values, I have to delete all the intermediate KFs and re-run the animation assistant. Kind of a hassle, eh? It would be cool if I could set a start and stop keyframe or layer markers and have the expression do its thing between a min and max value.... more »

Collapse Transformation Attribute?
|
| |
Simple question: Is there a collapse transformations attribute that can be scripted? I'd like to collapse a comp after its scale passes 100%. Its an easy enough expression to write, but does this attribute even exist? I couldn't find it anywhere.

Adding value to scale only affects X, not Y? Why?
|
| |
So I I'm using Sound Keys to drive the scale of another layer. However, it's only modifying the X scale, not X & Y. What's wrong with this expression: transform.scale+thisComp.layer ("solid").effect("Sound Keys")("Output 1") also tried these, but got an syntax error: s = transform.scale+thisComp.layer ("solid").effect("Sound Keys")("Output 1");... more »

#include Doesn't work in AE CS4

Anyone have a work around for the "#include" javascript in CS4. Used an external file to drive some text in my comp in CS3, but the same script doesn't work in CS4. I even downloaded a comp from the graymachine.com <[link]> website to check and it didn't work either.... more »

Expression to control speed with the option to stop?
|
| |
I made a simple animation with an expression to move a layer at a constant speed. With the Separate XYZ effect I used the expression time*120 on the X position. (120 is linked to a slider control but that is irrelevant for the problem) This works great but now I want to stop the layer for a bit and then move on from that very same spot. And there comes the problem. As soon as I set the speed to 0 the animation jumps to the start. This is pretty obvious because time*0 = 0, but I can't come up with a solution :s... more »
