  Is this a bug? If not can anyone fix it?

  Hi,

  I have the following expression on the ‘start’ range selector of a text animator.

  dur=1

  if (time < inPoint+dur)
  linear(time,inPoint,inPoint+dur,0,100)
  else
  linear(time,outPoint-dur,outPoint,100,0)

  It animates from the in point to 1 second, from 0 to 100. It then animates from 1 second before the out point to the out point, from 100 to 4.

  Why is it not animating out to 0, as it specifies in the expression!?

  Maybe you just need advance the out animation one frame:

  dur=1
  f = thisComp.frameDuration;
  if (time < inPoint+dur)
  linear(time,inPoint,inPoint+dur,0,100)
  else
  linear(time,outPoint-dur-f,outPoint-f,100,0)

  Perfect, thanks Dan! I thought it would be something like that.
