  Stop Wiggle, then rotate to specific degree.

  I read the following thread about how to stop a Wiggle.

  I’m using this to make a 3D image wiggle side-to-side on its Z-axis, then stop. What I’d like to do next is, after the Wiggle has been stopped, then make it ROTATE back to a specific angle. Because right now, when it stops wiggling, it just snaps to that specific angle and it looks really jerky.

  Something like this, probably:
  
timeToStart = 2;
frameToStart = 12;
timeToStop = 4;
frameToStop = 12;
easeTime = .5;

  d = thisComp.frameDuration;
  t1 = timeToStart + frameToStart*d;
  t2 = timeToStop + frameToStop*d;

  if (time t1 && time <= t2){ wiggle(3,25); }else{ easeOut(time,t2,t2+easeTime,wiggle(3,25,1,.5,t2),value); }
