  Counting by X

  Posted by Navarro Parker on July 7, 2014 at 5:37 pm

  I’m using this simple expression to link a Text layer’s source text to a slider to display numbers.

  e = effect(“Slider Control”)(“Slider”);
  Math.round(e)

  How can I get it to multiples of 5 (Or any arbitrary number I want)?

  One way:

  e = effect(“Slider Control”)(“Slider”);
  Math.floor(e/5)*5

  So simple. I don’t understand how that works, but I’m glad it does.
